When Maggie MacAuley returns to the small coal town of her childhood, she has no intention of staying. Her life is in Chicago now. There's nothing to keep her in Skingle Creek ... nothing but the discovery that a man who has lived most of his life for the children of Skingle Creek is no longer the hero of Maggie's childhood but seems destined to become the love of her life. In Maggie's quest for independence, she finds her greatest strength in sacrifice ... and in her struggle to heal her family, she finds her heart renewed by love.

"Fall, 1904 ... The Wind Harp ... the story of Maggie MacAuley home for a visit to the small coal town of her childhood, but with no intention of staying. her life is at Hull House in Chicago now. There's nothing to keep her in Skingle Creek ... Nothing that is, but her father, seriously injured in a mining accident yet determined to hold on to his job and keep his family from ruin. Nothing but her mother, desperate to stop her husband from destroying himself in the coal mine that nearly took his life once before. Nothing but her younger brother, torn between his father's determination to keep him out of the mine and his own resolve to help his parents. Nothing but a sister who also returns home, bringing with her a dark, potentially devastating secret. And nothing but the unexpected discovery that a man who was once the hero of Maggie's childhood now seems destined to become something more."@en
