He never gets the girl. She rebuffs every suitor. Stranded together, will they find love—or will danger tear them apart?

Grace Talbert has never been one to follow expectations. No matter how many suitors her father handpicks, she longs for a love that sets her heart ablaze, not a cold arrangement of convenience. Her passion lies in her work with the Women’s Aid Society, where she fights tirelessly for the poor and the Indians. But when a mission to deliver goods to a remote reservation goes awry, Grace finds herself stranded in the wilderness—face-to-face with a man who challenges everything she thought she wanted.

Joshua Harrison knows what it feels like to fail—at love, at life, at being enough. Returning to Prescott with the orphaned daughter of a fallen friend, he hopes to build a promising future for his daughter. But his heart remains guarded after two failed romances, and raising a child alone is a responsibility he feels woefully unfit for. When a twist of fate leaves him stranded with Grace Talbert, her fiery spirit sparks something deep within him. Yet Joshua fears that trusting her with his heart may lead to heartbreak once again.

As the Arizona frontier reveals its untamed beauty and unrelenting dangers, Grace and Joshua must rely on their wits and faith to survive. Together, they’ll face trials that could shatter their resolve or forge an unbreakable bond. Will they open their hearts to the love God has in store, or will fear and doubt rob them of a chance at love?

Set against the breathtaking yet perilous backdrop of the 1870s Arizona Territory, this poignant Christian historical romance is a story of courage, faith, and the life-changing power of love.
