A clean historical romance of faith, family, healing, and a second chance at love in the small town of Trinity, Texas.
Hope Ledbetter buried her heart the day she buried her husband. Now one of Trinity's few confirmed war widows, she struggles to face the long, lonely days. Only her children give her a reason to rise each morning. While her once-thriving horse ranch is falling apart around her, much like the shattered pieces of her heart.
A veterinarian with a guarded past, Roland Malone arrives in Trinity claiming he only wants to care for the animals in a competitive rodeo event. But the event is more than it appears-a clever plan to bring eligible bachelors to a town filled with war widows and unmarried women whose dreams of love and family have been nearly destroyed by loss.
From the moment Roland sees Hope, the grieving ranch widow captures his heart. But a shadow from Roland's past follows him west, threatening his good name, his freedom, and the fragile hope growing between them.
Hope is afraid to open her heart again. Roland is afraid his past will steal his future. With grief, fear, and suspicion standing between them, can they trust God's timing and find the courage to love? Or will circumstances beyond their control keep them apart forever?
In Trinity, Texas, two wounded hearts must decide whether love is worth the risk of believing again.
