Road to Recovery (32 page)

Beth Campbell grew up poor. The kind
of poor that people only hear of but never actually see—the
dirty-no-electricity-in-the-winter kind of poor. But she had
brains, grit, and determination. She was making a better life for
herself, until she met a man—and made a mistake.

Now at age twenty-five she’s a single
mother working hard once again, making a better life for herself
and her three-year-old daughter, Zoe. She’s learned from her
mistakes and is focusing on the right things. No more wishful
dreams for her.

Dr. Mac Malone was minding his own
business on his daily run when he heard a child’s scream. Before he
knew it, he was Zoe Campbell’s savior. Falling in love with the
little girl was easy. Convincing her mother he really was a good
guy was something altogether different. Can he help Beth learn to
trust again?
