Synopsis

I promise you, my little one, I'll do everything I can to see that your life is safe and happy. Even if that means giving you up... Markie McBride has kept a secret locked in her heart--and in her long-lost diary--for eighteen years. And when she finds herself back in Five Points, Texas, face-to-face with Justin Kilgore, she finally tells him what she couldn't all those years ago. They have a son. Brandon is coming to Five Points to work as an intern on a political campaign against Justin's congressman father. When the inquisitive teenager stumbles upon evidence of his grandfather's corruption, the boy unwittingly puts himself in danger. Markie swore to always keep her son safe--but keeping this vow may mean once again losing the man she loves.
