If you've read Whispers in the Valley, you know that Olivia, the third of the sisters of the heart, has arrived in Carr Valley. But she's not the only newcomer. Victoria's father, recently released from prison, and Peter's friend from seminary have come for the double wedding that has the townspeople more excited than they've been in years.
Not one of them has planned to make the new mineral springs spa their home, but life doesn't always go according to plans, does it?
Will be available in paperback, as an ebook, and on Kindle Unlimited exclusively at Amazon.

Her wounds are obvious.
His are hidden.
Will the new Carr Valley Spa bring them healing or danger?
Olivia Fairchild’s friends used to consider her a perennial optimist, but that optimism is destroyed the night her family’s carriage crashes down a cliff, killing her parents and leaving her confined to a wheelchair. Abandoning her dreams of marriage and a career as an author of romantic stories, she heads to Texas to be with her sisters of the heart at the new Carr Valley spa.
Olivia has no hope that the mineral springs will help her walk again, but she agrees to try a three-week regimen. That will give her time to plan the next chapter of her life. And maybe, just maybe, she’ll be able help others, particularly Baxter Washburn, whose eyes reflect a pain she knows all too well.
Carr Valley’s apothecary, Baxter Washburn, works hard to present himself as a contented man. No one needs to know that he’s still haunted by the horrors he witnessed during the war that divided the nation and that those memories are the reason he’s foresworn both marriage and a career as a physician.
But when the town is suddenly left without a doctor, Baxter knows he has no choice but to provide whatever medical care he can to the townspeople and the patients at the spa, including Olivia, who caught his eye the day she arrived. Appalled when he discovers how her injuries were treated and the medicines she’s been prescribed, Baxter begins to question whether the carriage crash was an accident. And if it wasn’t, who wanted to kill her?
With hearts and lives on the line, Olivia and Baxter work to uncover the truth. Then they discover that she’s not the only one who’s in danger.
