It is 1973 and Charlie Lawrence is a Vietnam vet who wants to put the conflict in southeast Asia behind him and get on with life back in America. Unfortunately, it's just not that easy. Despite a faith strong enough to refute false theology and stand against popular values, there is no question that Charlie, a proud Green Beret, is struggling to readjust to civilian life. Troubled by his traumatic memories of a haunting war in the jungle, Charlie makes his way to South Texas where he is offered a job on Ramon Francisco Cantu Ybarra's cattle ranch. As he acclimates to his new role on the ranch that allows him a welcome escape from civilization, Charlie begins making friends and spreading the Word of God. But when fortune changes and he agrees to an arranged marriage with a woman he's never met, Charlie soon discovers that trusting in God's plan is harder than he thinks. In this touching novel, a Vietnam vet attempting to adapt to civilian life takes a job on a ranch and agrees to a nonconventional marriage, challenging his faith in ways he never imagined.
