Old Harbor, Alaska is as small as it is remote. Surrounded by wilderness miraculously still untouched by man, its beauty is rivaled only by the expansive sky above. On cloudless nights, the Northern Lights give way to countless stars so unimaginable one might almost think it is Heaven. What Old Harbor boasts in scenic wonder, it lacks, however, in companionship. The hardworking men who keep the town afloat are as adrift in their own hearts as the stars in the vast sky under which they sleep. When the church minister places an ad seeking wives for the men of the town, his actions will change the lives of many people-forever. In New York, Allie Davis has one great fear: that she will be alone for the rest of her life. Following the death of her mother, her world has been reduced to just herself despite the millions of people just outside her door. Not far away, Rachel Franklin wants a second chance at life, something she can't imagine happening in New York where so much emotional baggage remains. She needs a change. She needs out. And she's willing to risk everything. Allie, Rachel, and three other women answer the most unlikely of ads, and eventually find themselves in a place as foreign to them as another world. More than the men they travel across the continent to meet, these women will find something equally important... ...each other. They will discover new friends, new bonds, and new relationships they never before understood. They will discover sisters they never had. And these women, the Old Harbor Sisters of Circumstance, will be put to the ultimate test of friendship, love, and even life.

Katherine Hunter has been plagued by recurring dreams of a little girl who hides in a bathroom from a monster. The dreams are so disturbing and real to Katherine that she has fought in her sleep and wet the bed on several occasions before being awakened by her frustrated husband, Jason. Besides dramatically disturbing her sleep, the dreams have also put a strain on her marriage. When Katherine talks to her mother about the impact the dreams have had on her life, her mother suggests that she see a psychiatrist. Although Katherine is initially stunned by her mother's advice, she eventually accepts the contact information for a doctor her mother is familiar with and sets up an appointment. During her meetings with Dr. Anna Martin, Katherine learns that she was a patient of the child psychiatrist soon after her parents adopted her. A traumatic incident led to the adoption, and the troublesome dreams turn out to be blocked memories of an abusive childhood that Katherine's mind is finally releasing. Before Katherine was adopted by Bill and Vanessa Tipton her name was Evie. Evie is the name of the girl in Katherine's dreams. After several therapy sessions, Dr. Anna suggests that Katherine undergo hypnosis as a means of unlocking her memories of the fatal fire that took the life of her birth mother, Grace. The procedure reveals the brutal emotional and sexual abuse that young Evie endured. As Katherine discovers the truth about her past, it becomes clear to her that the child in her dream-the child she once was-has been protecting her from those devastating memories all along.
