Upon its benefactor’s untimely death, the San Francisco
Christian Home for Orphans and Foundlings loses all of its funding.
What is to become of the dozen children who live happily within its
walls? The spinster housemother, Magdalene Fairchild, and the
home’s founder, Chandler Alexandre, scramble to find a way to keep
the children. When all of their plans go awry, only one hope
remains--a marriage of convenience between the plain Magdalene and
the handsome Chandler. Though the orphanage is saved, will the
hasty action of these two people ultimately cause heartache?
Magdalene, convinced no man could ever want her, finds little joy
in her marriage. Chandler, meanwhile, struggles to show Magdalene
what a treasure she is. When they find their love for the children
isn’t enough, how will God work to bless their union?
