A Cowboy at Heart

by Lori Copeland, Virginia Smith

Overview

A Cowboy at Heart, an engaging Amish-meets-Wild West adventure from bestselling authors Lori Copeland and Virginia Smith, weaves a clever and romantic tale of new starts and second chances.

1886—Jesse Montgomery is beginning to feel restless. Though he’s grateful to his friends Colin and Emma for helping him get on his feet again after a few bad choices and some hard living, surely the Lord doesn’t want him to stay in Apple Grove forever. Doesn’t the Almighty have plans for this reformed rowdy cowboy to build a life of his own?

When an unscrupulous cattle baron tries to steal Amish land, Jesse intervenes and is wounded. Lovely Katie Miller, the young healer in the district, attends to him while trying to guard her heart. This sweet Amish widow cannot risk falling in love with an Englisch cowboy, charming though he may be. And yet—she believes God has a life for her too that is more than what she can presently see. Could there be a future with Jesse only He could bring about?

"This is a very satisfying conclusion to the Amish of Apple Grove series. Once again, the characters were interesting, believable, and endearing. The plot flowed smoothly and the conflict resolution was clever. Though I enjoyed all three books, this one was my favorite because all the loose ends were neatly and happily tied up. Overall a lovely story."

From the Publisher

Apple Creek resident Katie Miller has her hands full with Englisher Jesse Montgomery when he's wounded trying to protect local land from a cattle magnate. As the local healer, it's Katie's job to care for him. But she is developing feelings for the cowboy, even though she knows he doesn't share her faith and he's getting ready to move on. Does God have a plan for these two very different people? VERDICT This touching, character-driven story will appeal to Copeland and Smith's many fans, as well as earn them new ones. Though it's the third entry in an Amish-meets-the-Wild-West series (after The Heart's Frontier and A Plain and Simple Heart), it stands well on its own. Sure to delight Wanda E. Brunstetter fans.
