Foster mother Jennifer Kirtpatrick is in debt. To supplement the meager stipend she receives from the county for her three foster children, she takes in boarders. Jenny has a generous heart, a green thumb, and a firm belief in the goodness of people. Financial expert David Sherwood agrees to help Jenny find a way out of debt. Consultant to some of the largest businesses in the country, he foresees no problem in straightening out the finances of one woman. David has a guarded heart, an intelligent mind, and a distrust of anyone who claims that love can conquer all. Jenny senses that underneath David's don't-get-too-close attitude is a warm and giving heart. David needs love but is afraid to accept it; Jenny gives love as easily as she breathes. A letter from a nine-year-old boy, a broken-down washing machine, and a love that cannot be denied conspire to bring Jenny and David together - forever.

Jane McBride Choate has been weaving stories in her head ever since she can remember, but she shelved her dreams of writing to marry and start a family. After her third child was born, she wrote a short story and submitted it to a children's magazine. To her astonishment, it was accepted. Two children later, she is still creating stories. She believes in the healing power of love, which is why she writes romances. Jane and her husband, Larry, live with their five children in Loveland, Colorado.

Convincing David is Jane's fourteenth novel for Avalon.
