Anotace knihy

A modern retelling of Gene Stratton-Porter's beloved 1904 classic Freckles, now in the public domain - brought fully into the present day, with an original contemporary setting, expanded scenes, new dialogue, and additional Christian content not found in the source material.

Freckles has never once belonged to anyone.

Abandoned as a newborn - his hand crushed, his name unknown - he grew up bouncing between foster placements that never lasted, aged out of the system at eighteen, and found himself, at nineteen, with nowhere left to go and nothing left to offer anyone.

Then a gruff, big-hearted land trust manager named McLean gives him a job nobody else wants: guarding two thousand acres of the last wild, uncut swampland in the county from timber thieves desperate enough to kill for what it's worth. It's dangerous. It's lonely. It's exactly the kind of work a boy with one hand and no name is supposed to be too broken to handle.

Freckles takes it anyway - and over one unforgettable summer, everything he's ever believed about himself starts quietly, stubbornly coming apart.

McLean gives him a name and calls him son. A found family of rough, warmhearted lumbermen teaches him what belonging actually feels like. A fearless, kindhearted young woman wanders into his swamp one afternoon chasing a butterfly and never once flinches at his missing hand - and somewhere along the way, alone in the dark with nothing left to lose, Freckles finds a Father who has been calling him home far longer than he ever knew to listen.

But the same summer that gives Freckles everything he's ever wanted also brings him face-to-face with the men willing to burn it all down to get what they want. Before autumn comes, he'll be bound, threatened, and left for dead defending a trust he swore to keep - and the girl who loves him will have to fight harder than either of them ever imagined to bring him home.

A sweeping, heartfelt story about found family, the God who adopts the unwanted, and the astonishing discovery that the thing we believe makes us unlovable is so often the very place love finds us first.

Perfect for readers who love clean, faith-filled romance with real stakes, unforgettable found-family warmth, and the quiet conviction that no one is ever truly beyond rescue.
