Hearts in Defiance

Men make mistakes. God may forgive them—but will their women? Charles McIntyre built the lawless mining town of Defiance with his bare hands—and a heart as hard as the mountains surrounding it. But love, both earthly and divine, has the power to change even the hardest of men. The question is: has it changed McIntyre enough? Naomi Miller sees the good in him. She says she loves him, and that God’s grace can wash away any past. But McIntyre can’t shake the doubts that haunt him, and the temptations in Defiance seem determined to pull him back into the darkness. Billy Page fled when he learned Hannah Frink was carrying his child. Now, regret consumes him. He’s left his fortune and family behind to prove he’s a changed man. But can he convince Hannah to forgive his betrayal, or will she finally deliver the justice he deserves? On a mountain high in the Rockies, looking down the barrel of a gun, both men will be forced to confront the choices that brought them here—and the women whose forgiveness may be their only salvation.
