Brady's Battle
(2026)(A book in the Mountain Men - Echoes Of Thunder series)
A novel by Kimberly Grist
Where storms end and thunder falls silent, could love find its beginning?
Haunted by battlefield memories and sleepless nights, former Union officer Brady Holt carries scars he can’t name or outrun. Now guardian to children who have already lost too much, he lives in a state of vigilance—cautious, alert, and convinced that peace ended the day his hope did.
He is silence, storms, and sharpened edges.
She figures he’s more stubborn than a mule and not nearly as friendly.
A spirited bootlegger’s daughter from the South, schoolteacher Eden Murphy has nowhere left to run. With danger close on her heels, she heads west with only faith, grit, and a fragile hope for a new beginning.
She is warmth, wit, and wildflowers, with a soft Southern drawl that stirs up memories he’s spent years trying to bury.
He’s confident she’s just another burr working its way under his saddle.
He wants solitude. She needs a fresh start. Could this unexpected connection be strong enough to still the storms within—and reveal the redemption waiting beyond the last rumble of thunder?
