One Simple Wish: A Novella
Joan Johnston
Karl isn’t troubled by Alyssa’s secrets, since lots of folks come West to escape from shadowed lives. He refuses to listen when she tries to tell him who she really is. After all, she’s such a wonderful person, how bad can her past really be?
Alyssa wrestles with her shame and guilt all the way to the altar, where the truth—told by a stranger—tests the depth of Karl’s love.
