Hattie Finds Trust

Hattie is broken. After nearly a year of abuse and torture, Hattie's faith in people is shattered. Her physical injuries will heal, but will her heart ever be able to mend? Mark is strong and protective, but reserved and quiet. His heart is worn out from the strain that has come with taking down the Benson operation and rescuing damaged women. When he brings Hattie to the rescue house, he can't take any more. He determines to go back to the ranch, and heal his spirit from the suffering he's seen.

When the skittish Hattie finds Mark in a vulnerable position, can she overcome her fear and help him? Will their spiritual damage be their bond?

Although the story is old fashioned, The Maxwell Brides Series contains violence, adult language and themes, and descriptions of physical intimacy. It is intended for mature readers.
