Description: In 1885 the logging industry in eastern Texas is booming, and Deborah Vandermark plans to assist her family's business now that she's completed college.

When typhoid begins to spread and her best friend's jilted fiancé returns, Deborah wonders if true love can overcome such obstacles ... for those dearest to her, and for herself.
