Lydia Jasper has loved Logan Carter since she was six years old. Unfortunately, Logan seems determined to remain the last person in the valley to notice.
The blacksmith's sister has never been anyone's idea of a delicate frontier lady.
Lydia would rather work than fuss over a dress, isn't afraid of getting her hands dirty, and has spent most of her life being teased for her tomboy ways.
Usually by Logan Carter.
Which wouldn't be nearly so irritating if she hadn't also been hopelessly in love with him for most of her life.
Logan, however, has eyes for Blanche Buckley-the banker's pretty, petite daughter and Lydia's complete opposite.
When Lydia is invited to accompany her best friend Megan Carter to Denver, it seems like the perfect opportunity to put some distance between herself and the man who will apparently never see her as anything more than the blacksmith's troublesome little sister.
There's only one problem.
Blanche and her father are going to Denver too.
And Logan has agreed to escort them.
But Denver has a way of changing perspectives.
Removed from the familiar rhythms of home, Logan begins seeing the people around him differently-and he doesn't particularly like what he discovers about himself.
His pursuit of Blanche has hurt people he loves. Broken promises and careless words have driven wedges into his family. And the woman he has mocked for being everything Blanche is not suddenly seems to possess every quality he actually wants in a wife.
Lydia is kind.
Loyal.
Funny.
Strong.
Compassionate.
And apparently Logan Carter has been a complete fool.
Unfortunately, realizing you're in love with the woman you've spent years overlooking is considerably easier than convincing her to trust your change of heart.
And romance isn't the only trouble waiting when they return home.
The Jasper smithy is in danger. The local banker is tightening his grip. Money disappears, accusations are made-and Lydia suddenly finds herself blamed for betraying her own family.
But something far more dangerous than a bad loan is hiding beneath the banker's respectable exterior.
Old crimes are beginning to surface.
A determined lawman has been searching for answers for years.
And Lydia and Blanche may discover that they have far more in common than either ever imagined.
Logan has spent years failing to see the remarkable woman standing right in front of him.
Now, with Lydia's reputation, her family's future, and eventually her very life at stake, he'll have to prove that he's finally learned the difference between what catches a man's eye-
and what captures his heart.
The Tomboy's Heart is Book Six of The Carter Saga, a faith-filled historical Western romance filled with childhood love, family secrets, mystery, redemption, laughter, and the unexpected beauty of finally being seen.
