Members of the legendary Hanger’s Horsemen, Mark Wallace and Jonah Brooks arrive in Llano County, Texas, to deliver a steed, never expecting they’d help deliver a baby as well. Left with an infant to care for, they head to a nearby foundling home, where Mark encounters the woman he nearly married a decade ago.
After failing at love, Katherine Palmer has dedicated her life to caring for children, teaming up with Eliza Southerland to start Harmony House. Eliza understands the pain of not fitting society’s mold, being illegitimate and of mixed ancestry. Yet those are the very attributes that lead her to minister to outcast children. The taciturn Jonah intrigues her by defying all her stereotypes of men, but there are secrets behind his eyes—ghosts from wars past and others still being waged.
When the Horsemen hear rumors of missing children, they stay to investigate, sticking close to Harmony House and its beautiful owners. As they work together to uncover the truth, love and danger grow hand in hand until a final sinister scheme threatens to destroy them all.
It’s been a long time since I read book one in this series, but books two and three have been on my TBR for a LONG time, so I was excited to pick up this book.
I’ve always enjoyed Witemeyer’s storytelling. Her stories are more period stories than historical (set in the past but not necessarily centered around a specific historical event), which I prefer. That lends itself well to a little more humor and some unconventional situations that work well in fiction.
The story did slow down in a few places for me, but overall I enjoyed watching Mark, Kate, Jonah, and Eliza figure out their lives and relationships. This is everything you want from a Christian historical romance–lots of faith, plenty of romance, and a cast of characters that has you rooting for them (and laughing with them–that’s part of Witemeyer’s charm).
Rated PG.
