In Colorado Territory in 1867, Civil War veteran Brody McQuaid finds purpose in caring for his young niece and protecting wild mustangs threatened by local ranchers. Veterinarian Savannah Marshall arrives in South Park after fleeing the marriage her father has arranged for her. Their shared determination to save the horses draws them together, offering Brody companionship and Savannah the chance to choose her own future. But family expectations, hostile cattlemen, and Brody’s wartime wounds complicate their growing love. Mountain scenery, tender caretaking, and passionate kisses surround a faith-centered story of healing for readers drawn to wounded heroes and fresh starts.
