Secret Behind the Haystack

Tom Cade believed Barbara Bennett was his first love—and the woman he would someday marry. Then he saw her meeting another man beside the old haystack. Convinced Barbara had betrayed him, Tom's heartbreak quickly turns to anger. A friendship is tested, an enemy is made, and one hard punch threatens to destroy everything he cares about. But the truth hidden behind the haystack is not what Tom believes. Barbara has kept a secret, but not because she has stopped loving him. Now Tom must decide whether pride will drive them apart—or whether forgiveness can bring two wounded hearts back together. A tender Western romance about first love, painful misunderstandings, and the courage it takes to trust again. Duration - 11m. Author - Abigail Stone. Narrator - Rachel Flint.
