Sweet devotion

Wayside, Oregon, population 17,900, seems like a Norman Rockwell painting come to life, with sixteen churches and a picturesque Main Street studded with cherry trees and flower borders.For caterer Amber Montgomery, Wayside is the perfect place to heal from her past as an abused wife and establish a new identity as the beloved local «cookie lady.

» For Police Chief Paul Evans, Wayside is the ideal town in which to raise his orphaned niece and nephew, far from the violence and grit of his former life as a D.C.

cop.But when a misunderstanding leads to Chief Evans hauling the feisty Amber to jail, this sleepy town begins to rock.

And when these instant adversaries find themselves paired as chaperons on a Community Christian Church youth camping trip, both are forced to confront fears they\'d rather ignore to save a life…and find the courage and faith to love.
