A Timid Heart: A Kansas Crossroads Story

Can a tender man whose passion is to take pictures reach the heart of a woman who hides her face from him and all others?

Bridget Hall takes a much-needed job at the Brody Hotel as a laundress after being rejected as a mail order bride. She loves the people she works with, but because of a deformity, she hides from society. . . until a handsome new photographer comes to Topeka.

Lorne Whitney looks for beauty in the world to wash out the ugliness he experienced as a soldier in the War Between the States ten years ago. Although he tried everything to forget, nothing works until he meets a brown-eyed beauty, who is reluctant to be seen.

Can Lorne get past Bridget’s resistance to create the kind of love that can save them both?

A Timid Heart is a Kansas Crossroads story—a sweet western romance set in Topeka in 1876. It’s full of heartwarming acceptance and tender romance.
