When her friends Tyler and Lucy are killed Lilly moves out to the farm to take care of their daughter and Lucy's mama. Lilly uses the money she makes from selling her dolls to buy necessities until Tyler's brother, Travis can be located. Travis Addison had not been home in six years when he felt a sudden urge to return. Expecting a joyous homecoming he was not prepared for what awaited him. Instead of his brother greeting him, he was met by a young woman, a niece, his brother's mother-in-law, and a young Negro man. Suddenly, his joy turned to sorrow. But with this new family and strength from the Lord he soon realizes his sorrow has turned to joy.
