A Widow's Faith, A Marshal's Heart
(2026)(The second book in the Frontier Lawmen of Texas: Stories of Faith and Love series)
A novel by Shania Thorne
Sometimes faith is the courage to begin again.
Six months after losing her husband, Helena Harrison is doing everything she can to keep her Texas ranch intact - working from dawn until dusk and surviving one day at a time. She’s learned how to be strong, but she’s forgotten how to hope.
U.S. Marshal Cade Brooks has spent three years outrunning his own grief, hiding behind his badge, and never staying long enough to call anywhere home. When he’s assigned to investigate escalating threats against Helena’s ranch, he expects to solve the case and move on, just like always.
But Helena's quiet faith and stubborn independence pull him in. As she teaches him about ranching and reminds him what it means to trust God, Cade finds himself slowing down. Somewhere between mending fences and late-night conversations on her porch, he realizes he'''s not running anymore. He’s falling for Helena.
Helena knows she shouldn’t hope. It’s too soon, too uncertain, and Cade’s life is built on danger and distance. Yet when he looks at her, she sees a future she thought she’d lost forever.
As danger closes in and they work together to protect her land and bring justice to Silver Creek, Helena and Cade will discover that second chances are real if they’re brave enough to trust God’s plan and each other.
A heartwarming, inspirational romance about healing, faith, and finding love when you least expect it. This book is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone. Meant to be a quick escape to another place and time.
Genre: Romance
