In 1893 Philadelphia, seventeen-year-old Vivian Garrett flees scandal after her so-called husband reveals that their marriage was fake, leaving her disgraced-and pregnant. Hiding as a widow in Northern California's rugged Siskiyou Mountains, she longs for a fresh start in the frontier town of Etna. New friendships and a daring rescue by a kindhearted cowboy-preacher named Blue begin to thaw her wounded heart. But when her scheming former husband hunts her down, determined to use her unborn child to claim his inheritance, Vivian faces her greatest test: Tell Blue the truth and risk losing everything, or guard her secret and live a lie--knowing Draven could expose her at any moment.
A Widow's Whim offers clean romance with emotional depth, blending themes of redemption, second chances, and feminine friendship. With touches of light humor and rich historical detail drawn from my personal knowledge of the Northern California setting, this story will appeal to readers who love Janette Oke, Lynn Austin, and heartfelt frontier romances with strong heroines and honorable heroes.
