Romancing the Heart

Two men desire her-but only one deserves her heart.

After enduring a forced marriage, devastating betrayal, and the death of her husband, Hattie Morran longs to reclaim her life at Silver Creek. But peace remains beyond her reach.

Matthew Forsythe has stood faithfully beside Hattie through every trial. His love is patient, protective, and unwavering. Yet Hattie cannot ignore the mysterious attraction she feels toward Walker Donovan-a dangerously charming man whose striking resemblance to Ira awakens emotions she thought had died with her husband.

When a moonlit walk ends in bloodshed, Ruth is killed, Matthew is wounded, and Walker takes a bullet meant for Hattie. Overcome with grief and gratitude, Hattie draws closer to the man who saved her life-even as her family begins questioning his intentions.

Then Walker reveals a secret passage beneath Silver Creek that may explain how Abner Garland and Hattie's other enemies have repeatedly slipped past the estate's guards. With danger moving through the shadows and Abner still seeking revenge, Hattie must uncover the truth before another person she loves is taken from her.

But Walker may be hiding secrets of his own-and trusting the wrong man could cost Hattie far more than her heart.

Romancing the Heart is Book 5 in Sky Alexander's The Fires of Love & Hate series-a sweeping historical Western romance filled with dangerous secrets, rival hearts, romantic suspense, family loyalty, jealousy, and unforgettable characters in turn-of-the-century Missouri.

Continue Hattie's powerful family saga and discover whether she will recognize true love before it is too late.
