Kindled Love (Men of the Heart, #1)

Southern Wyoming, 1871

William Stone has spent years running from the life he believes God called him to live. Haunted by war, estranged from his powerful father, and carrying more regrets than possessions, he arrives at a struggling Wyoming ranch with nothing left but a saddle and a willingness to work.
Widow Anna Cooper has survived loss before. Since the fire that claimed her husband and left her scarred, she has kept the world at a distance—focusing only on her young son and the ranch she’s fought to hold together alone.
Offering a stranded stranger a place to sleep in the barn was never supposed to change anything.
But as winter settles over the frontier, William becomes more than hired help. He repairs fences, teaches Thomas to hunt, and slowly brings warmth back into a home long marked by grief. And for the first time in years, Anna begins to wonder if God still has something good planned for her life.
Yet healing old wounds is never simple. William cannot outrun his past forever, and Anna must decide whether she can trust a man who may not stay.

Kindled Love is the first book in the Men of the Heart series—a faith-filled historical romance set in the rugged frontier of Wyoming.
