A Promise of Home for the Bride
(2026)(The second book in the Healing Hearts of Texas series)
A novel by Kat Lynne
A little girl’s wish brought them together.
Can they find the love to make them a family?
Myrtle Hayes promised herself she would never love another man after losing her husband. But promises cannot feed a child, offer protection, or give little Sally the family she longs for. So Myrtle answers an advertisement from Chuck Hewitt, a Texas farmer who claims he has little to offer beyond honest work, a safe home, and his sacred word.
Chuck Hewitt knows loss as deeply as Myrtle does. Haunted by the fire that took his brother and burdened by years of solitude, he longs to fill his empty farm with laughter again. When Myrtle and Sally step from the train at Peak Falls, carrying two trunks and a lifetime of hopes, Chuck vows to become the husband and father they deserve.
Day by day, Sally'''s laughter softens Chuck’s grief, while his patience and goodness awaken feelings Myrtle never expected to experience again. But beneath their growing happiness lies a secret shared by the women who arranged their correspondence—and Chuck has allowed Myrtle to believe their meeting was chance.
When the truth threatens their fragile happiness, will Myrtle return to the life she knew—or fight for the family she never believed she would find?
