About the Book
Book: A Warrior’s Heart Author: Misty M. Beller Genre: Christian Historical Romance Release date: August 31, 2021
Brielle Durand still feels haunted by the massacre that killed her mother a dozen years before. Vowing to never let it happen again, she’s risen to be the key defender for her people’s peace-loving French settlement living in hidden caves in the Canadian Rockies. When a foreigner wanders too near to their secret homes, she has no choice but to disarm and capture him. But now, what to do with this man who looks at her in a strange way and insists he can be trusted?
Hoping to escape past regrets, Evan MacManus ventured into the unknown, assigned to discover if the northern mountains contain an explosive mineral that might help America win the War of 1812. Despite being taken prisoner, Evan is determined to complete his mission. But when that assignment becomes at odds with his growing appreciation of the villagers and Brielle, does he follow through on the promise he’s made to his government or take a risk on the path his heart is leading him down? Either choice will cause harm to someone.
Brielle and Evan must reconcile the warring in their hearts, if they’ve any hope to find the peace the seek.
Pressing a hand tight against his wound, he clutched his saddle horn with the other and eased himself to the ground. He didn’t release his hold on either the saddle or his gut as he tried to settle the spinning in his head. Had he lost so much blood already? The warm liquid coated his hand, which meant he wasn’t staunching the flow. Yet he shouldn’t be this lightheaded so quickly.
Ignoring the thought, he squinted at the bundle of furs before him.
“To the ground, I said. Or it’s another arrow you’ll meet.”
That was no Indian’s speech. Certainly not broken English, but the words contained a lilt only a Frenchman could master. Blast. How had he stumbled upon the enemy all the way out here? He’d hoped—prayed—this territory was too far west for him to meet one of the Canadians they were fighting. “Who are you?” He knew better than to argue with a man pointing a weapon, but the cramping in his gut made his thoughts swim in a disjointed flow.
A growl emanated from his adversary. Guttural, but not so deep as he would have expected. Still, the tone made it clear the fellow’s patience was fast waning
