Now that courageous act could cost him his pending marriage and his reputation.The Hawaii of 1891 is not untamed as it was when the first missionaries arrived, but the dangers haven't disappeared.

The woman he loves is walking away from their promise of life together on account of a baby boy . . . and the forsaken people of the island he came from.For her part, Eden Derrington must choose between her father's lifelong dream of curing leprosy, and a life of privilege with the man she's loved since childhood. Will Rafe wait for her while she serves alongside her father?
