A Heart's Lesson for the Widowed Rancher
(2024)(A book in the Hearts of the Untamed West series)
A novel by Lorelei Brogan
Abandoned as a little girl, Emma Callahan's life has been shaped by loneliness and a yearning for belonging. Determined to reclaim her future, she accepts a teaching position on the rugged frontier, hoping to find peace—and perhaps purpose—beyond the pain of her past. But when she saves a young boy from harm, she finds herself drawn to his grief-stricken father, a widowed blacksmith battling his own ghosts. Jack Donovan thought his heart had been buried alongside his wife.
Every spark of attraction to the new schoolteacher, Emma, ignites a searing guilt he can’t seem to shake. He’s spent so long building walls to protect himself and his son, Billy, that the idea of hope feels like a betrayal. Yet, Emma’s quiet strength and kindness toward Billy touch something raw and fragile within him—something he thought was lost forever.
As sabotage and jealousy threaten to tear their world apart, Emma and Jack find themselves at a crossroads. Emma’s hard-won hope is tested by shadows from her past, while Jack struggles to trust his heart again. The wounds they carry are deep, and the whispers of doubt grow louder with each setback. Together, they face a choice: risk everything for the future they long for, or let fear and regret steal away the love they've just begun to build.
Tropes: Widower Hero, Wounded Hero-Caretaker Heroine
