The Telegraph and the Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798278389163)

Catherine Hartley, disenchanted Boston socialite, arrives in the dusty frontier town of Copper Springs with nothing but her late uncle's debts and a telegraph operator's skill.

Widowed rancher James Dawson has learned the hard way that refined Eastern women don't survive Wyoming winters. Now he'll do anything to protect his lonely daughter from another heartbreak. Even if it means pushing away the one woman who makes him feel alive again.

But when Kate climbs a ladder in a thunderstorm to save the town's telegraph line, Jim realizes she's nothing like he assumed. And when one devastating mistake threatens to cost him everything, Kate fights to prove she's not just passing through.

Caught between the life she left behind and the future she's building, Kate must decide whether to return to Boston's suffocating respectability, or risk her heart.

A wholesome historical western romance about second chances and choosing home.
