A new land, a fragile heart, and a chance for love she never believed possible.
Ava Walsh has learned to hide her doubts behind a steady smile. Her father believes that moving to her aunt and uncle’s Nevada ranch will give his three daughters the future he fears he won’t live to see, and with the doctor’s grim warning echoing in her mind, Ava refuses to challenge him. If this journey west brings him peace, she’ll endure it, no matter her misgivings. But the wide‑open frontier offers no escape from the truth she carries: her injured back leaves her bedridden far too often, and she’s convinced no man would choose a wife who can’t always stand on her own two feet. As her family uproots everything familiar for a land of dust, strangers, and uncertain promises, Ava wonders whether hope can truly be found in such a place. Yet the West has a way of surprising those who least expect it. And when new possibilities and new affections begin to stir, Ava must decide whether she’ll cling to her fears or risk the uncertainty new relationships bring.
