Heart of Courage

A Christian Historical Western Romance

De: Penny Zeller

Narrado por: Avery Wade

A new life awaits her...if she can find the courage.

In the spring of 1885, LilyBeth Engel makes the courageous decision to run from everything she's known. She boards a train and goes as far as her meager funds will take her with her young son in tow. With nothing but the clothes on her back, the baby in her arms, her Bible, and a skill for sewing beautiful dresses, LilyBeth determines to succeed with the Lord's help and dogged determination.

Barrett MacCallum owns one of the largest ranches in Hilltop in the Montana Territory. He also owns several of the businesses on the main street. When a woman asks to rent one of his businesses for her new dress shop, he's amenable, even if it means charging the woman less rent because she's obviously destitute.

When Barrett begins to fall in love with LilyBeth, will she have the courage to allow herself to love again with so much at stake?

Heart of Courage is a faith-filled, tender romance with the reminder that God guides our every step. Perfect for those who love books with the following tropes:

Strong and handsome protector

Found family

Widowed single mom

Happily ever after

This was a very enjoyable book!

I don't usually listen/read much Christian romance, but I enjoyed this book from beginning to end, and was sad to have it end.

Heart of courage

I want to say how wonderful to have Zeller's books on audio as a disabled older woman I can get on my motorized wheelchair , phone in my pocket cruz the neighborhood and enjoy a listen to her now 2nd audio book . thank you Penny Zeller .A great listen!

A Beautiful Story

What a beautiful story of a young widow with a small boy that has courage to start all over. LilyBeth goes to Montana Territory and that is a long way from all she knew. One thing she knew and that was how to sew; mending and making dresses.
Barrett being a kind man saw that she needed help. I loved how he tried taking care of LilyBeth and how they started getting to know each other. The characters seemed real and the substitute grandparents were just what LilyBeth needed. She had low self esteem but she was courageous and needed some love. A great story and a great narrator.
Don’t miss this inspiring Christian Historical Romance! I highly recommend it.
I received a copy of this audiobook but was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

Beautiful story!
