In the depths of a collapsing mine shaft, David Mackenzie lost everything. Even his sight. Determined not to rely on anyone else to get along, David wraps himself tightly in folds of bitterness as dark as his new world.
But Karen Worth will not give up, and through a series of maneuvers she manages to convince David to marry her anyway. She quickly discovers, however, that though she loves him unconditionally, she shouldn't have stepped ahead of God—who also never gives up.
