About
Can they find their way to the right future amid the uncertainty that faces them?
In the midst of WWII, Jane Linder pours all her energy and dreams for a family into her career at the Toronto Children's Aid Society. As acting directress, Jane hopes for a permanent appointment so she can continue making a difference in the lives of children. But if the board were to find out she is divorced, everything would change.
Garrett Wilder has been hired to overhaul operations at the Children's Aid Society and investigate a report of misused funds. He hopes to impress the board members with his findings and earn the vacant director's position. A war injury ended his dream of taking over his parents' farm, but with the security of the director's job, he'd be able to contribute financially and help save the family business.
Despite their competing interests and Garret's early suspicions, a friendship grows and feelings begin to blossom. But when Jane receives an unexpected opportunity that could fulfill her deepest desires, she finds herself at a crossroads. Can she discern the path to true happiness?

Publishers Weekly
"Although this is the second novel of Susan Mason's Redemption's Light series, it is skillfully structured as a standalone. . . The fictionalization of some of the real characters is well handled, and the introduction of fake accounting and bribery issues adds appeal to the plot. The norms of WWII-era Toronto are well portrayed . . . [and] The problems of placing a delinquent child in foster care are depicted well."
