Heart of Strength

Heart of Strength is a lovely western set against the backdrop of Wyoming. Danger abounds. Criminals lurk in the shadows. And love takes root in the midst of the difficulties.

The characters were each endearing, Wyatt with his protectiveness and Aimee with her strong character that shone through even in the midst of her grief. Their wit and banter kept a lighthearted streak in the story. Besides them, Aimee's nieces added lots of fun and smiles to the book.

Which leads to another point: the tropes. Both the found-family and enemies-to-more tropes were well done and followed the perfect arch through the story. I personally love both tropes, so enjoyed having them together in this book.

The theme of leaning on the Lord's strength rather than trusting in man (or oneself) rang clear and true through the story. What an excellent reminder for all of us!

Overall, Heart of Strength is a story you'll want to grab if you like strong faith content, family relationships, and plenty of conflict.
