AmyJo came West to marry a stranger. Instead, she found a town that had no idea what was about to hit it.
The daughter of a cruel Confederate soldier, AmyJo has already lost almost everything that once defined her life.
So she heads West with the two people who have remained steadfastly beside her, her beloved Esther and Joe, a collection of trunks-including far too many filled with books-and an agreement to become a mail-order bride.
Then a rockslide puts Caleb Carter in her path.
The handsome rancher is kind, capable, and, most importantly to AmyJo, treats Esther and Joe with the same respect he gives her.
Unfortunately, Caleb isn't the man she's traveled West to marry.
Even more unfortunately, when AmyJo finally reaches town, she discovers the man who is supposed to marry her has neglected to mention one rather important detail.
He already has a wife.
Stranded but hardly defeated, AmyJo does what she has always done.
She begins again.
With Caleb's help, AmyJo, Esther, and Joe find work and rooms at the local boarding house. Esther's cooking quickly earns admirers, while AmyJo puts her beloved books to use teaching any woman willing to sit at her table how to read-including women respectable society would rather she ignore.
Caleb tells himself he's only helping a newcomer get settled.
He's not fooling anyone.
But a mysterious fire and an unexpected inheritance soon send AmyJo and Caleb to Denver, where AmyJo discovers that having money presents an entirely new problem.
Now she can do something about the injustices she sees.
And AmyJo has never been particularly good at looking the other way.
By the time they return home, AmyJo's unconventional little family has grown-and Caleb has fallen hopelessly in love with the stubborn Southern woman who seems determined to turn his quiet life upside down.
Not everyone welcomes the changes she brings.
And when a dangerous piece of AmyJo's past follows her West, the new life she has fought to build-and the people she has come to love-are suddenly threatened.
AmyJo has survived loss, cruelty, scandal, and one spectacularly unsuccessful attempt at becoming a mail-order bride.
She's certainly not going to surrender now.
Caleb Carter wanted a life beside the woman he loves.
He just didn't realize loving AmyJo would be the adventure of a lifetime.
The Rebel Heart is Book Four of The Carter Saga, a faith-filled historical Western romance about courage, unconventional families, second chances, and one determined woman who refuses to accept that the world must remain the way she found it.
