Where Hope Still Stands

American Historical Romance

A city on the brink. A woman living in secrecy. A love tested by war.

As the Civil War threatens to tear St. Louis apart, Captain Robert Warren is determined to keep the city from falling into the hands of Southern sympathizers. Duty has always come first, until he crosses paths with Mollie Grove, a woman whose quiet courage challenges everything he believes.

Mollie lives a dangerous double life, risking everything to help enslaved men and women reach freedom through the Underground Railroad. When her secret is discovered by her uncle’s closest friend, Robert sees not recklessness—but resolve, compassion, and a heart as devoted to justice as his own is to order.

As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, Robert and Mollie must decide whether to stand divided by their causes, or united by a love strong enough to weather a nation at war.

Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, this sweet and wholesome historical romance is a story of courage, sacrifice, and hope, where love proves that even in the darkest times, the heart can still find its way home.
