Sawyer Carter has carried Anne Warren's ring for months. It takes five orphaned little girls to finally make him use it.
Death has come to the valley.
With the community's only doctor laid up with a broken leg, his daughter Anne and her longtime love, Sawyer Carter, ride from ranch to ranch checking on his patients.
What they find at the Stanton homestead changes everything.
The cabin has burned to the ground. Frank and Etta Stanton are dead. And somewhere among the devastation, their five young daughters are missing.
A frantic search leads Sawyer and Anne to the well-and five frightened little girls hiding inside. Two are badly injured. The others are cold and terrified, but alive.
Getting them home is only the beginning.
The valley rallies around the newly orphaned sisters, but as the days pass, an uncomfortable question becomes impossible to ignore.
What will happen to the girls now?
When an elderly relative arrives intending to take only the oldest child and leave the remaining four to be divided among families throughout the valley, Anne cannot bear to watch five grieving sisters lose one another too.
Neither can Sawyer.
So the rancher who has spent months waiting for the perfect moment to ask Anne Warren to become his wife finally decides he's waited long enough.
He proposes on the spot.
Within hours, Anne has become Sawyer Carter's wife-and together they petition to become parents to all five Stanton girls.
There isn't much time for newlywed bliss.
The Circle C cattle drive can't wait, and Sawyer must leave his new wife behind to somehow turn five traumatized children, a ranch house, and two people who have barely had time to realize they're married into a family.
Anne soon discovers that becoming a mother is the easy part.
Helping five little hearts heal is something else entirely.
And hers isn't the only heart being tested.
Because whatever happened at the Stanton homestead may not be over.
As more violence strikes the valley, questions begin to replace answers-and when Sawyer finally returns from the cattle drive to find his own home burned and his family gone, he realizes the people he loves may be caught in something far more dangerous than anyone imagined.
Finding them will take courage.
Finding the truth will take faith.
And healing their new family will take the one thing Sawyer and Anne have been trying to find their way toward since childhood.
Love.
The Healing Heart is Book Three of The Carter Saga, a faith-filled historical Western romance about childhood sweethearts, unexpected parenthood, found family, courage, and the slow, beautiful work of healing.
