Can a single day together on horseback change your life forever? Oregon Territory 1852... Labeled a harlot and expelled from a remote logging camp and her work teaching children, Faith Featherby embarks on a journey to return a stolen spirit horse to the little girl whose photograph was hidden in the horse's riding blanket. Orphaned young and stifled by a lifelong shyness, Faith has only her education as a schoolmistress and her memories of her mother's stories. She's not an experienced rider, but a Medicine Hat horse-alleged to have the sacred power to protect its rider-might be her best hope for surviving the wilderness... until an Osage warrior rides out of the mist. Scarred by a brutal past, the warrior challenges Faith to follow a new path where belief in yourself and your partner, be they horse or man, can lead to a triumph of the heart. Follow a path. Find a partner. Fight for a future together. Following Faith is a stand-alone novella set in a beautiful but dangerously unforgiving wilderness. It's also the second book in the award-winning Lonesome Hearts series which can be read in any order.

Can a sister who's lied to everyone find truth with the wrong man?Secrets are everywhere... From the moment she met her sisters in a Qu'Appelle Valley orphanage, Oriole has rewritten her past to protect her present. Now Lark is married, Wren is lost, and Oriole is on a mission to find Wren before their cruel and controlling troupe manager does.

Now, after two years apart, Oriole's finally back in his life and so is a shot at redemption.
