Farewell Doesn't Mean Forever

     Matthias Martel is used to life throwing obstacles in his path, but the latest proved even life has a weird sense of humor.

     When a young man shows up in the Northwoods wearing his face, and claiming to be his son, Matthias wants more than answers. He wants the truth. Only that truth rests with a woman in his far past, who not only stole his heart but broke it in the process.

     Victoria Thatcher feared for the life of her unborn child. She couldn't get the information she needed to find Matthias. Her father swore he'd kill the child when it was born. Victoria was alone, scared, and had nowhere to go where her baby would be safe.

     With his son in tow, Matthias goes in search of the truth. He faces his vindictive mother, the one person who could have ripped his and Victoria's happiness away from them.

     Matthias prays he finds his only true love. He hopes Victoria doesn't send him down a path he'll never recover from but gives him a way back to the life he believed was forever locked away.
