The Heart Answers

Rich in historical detail, The Heart Answers takes us to 1867 Wyoming, where a misplaced socialite and an independent preacher ask the deepest questions of the heart.

Jessica DuBois is not used to getting her hands dirty or her heart broken. When her mother remarries and takes Jessica with her to rugged Fort Bridger, Wyoming, Jessica longs for her Boston parties and the control she used to have over her life.

Then she meets Reverend Clay Cole, a man who seems only to have eyes for God and his adoring three-year-old cousin. Clay is not just immune to Jessica’s charms, he challenges her selfish attitude.

When tragedy brings this unlikely pair together, they must decide: Is love truly powerful enough to heal the soul?

Couldn’t stop listening

I could not stop listening to this book. This is my first time listening to any book in this series so I was unaware of any prior story with Jessica in it. I had a bit of a hard time liking Clay… always turning the good that Jessica attempted into something negative and projecting his mom insecurities onto her. Never really admitting to her that he judged her unfairly and maybe vice versa, but his character really got under my skin with how bull headed he is.
