Enlisting Miss Wakelin's aid in his search for a nanny, he soon finds himself on the receiving end of her efforts to share God's love with him. And before long, he becomes the object of her love. Warmed by her affection, Nicholas slowly begins to change - but one great barrier impedes their love. He is a nobleman and she is a commoner. How can God work a miracle when society is set against them?
