Can true love overcome a legacy of betrayal?

Rachel wants her older half-sister Leah to wed and move out of their household. Leah wishes her father would find a good man who would love her alone. Meanwhile, Jacob is making his way to their home to escape a past laced with deceit. He hopes instead to find the future God has promised him.

But the past comes back to haunt Jacob. He finds himself on the receiving end of treachery. The man who wanted only one woman ends up with two sisters who have never gotten along. Now they must spend the rest of their lives sharing a husband. In the power struggles that follow, only one woman will triumph. Or will she?
