Hearts of Faith

The Hearts of Faith collection presents three historical romances inspired by real Christian couples whose private relationships developed amid public conflict. The books move from Restoration England and the Oregon mission movement to pre-Revolutionary Massachusetts, placing courtship within arguments about religious liberty, mission, conscience and political resistance.

Each novel fictionalises portions of the historical record while retaining the central pressures faced by its real-life inspirations. Marriage becomes a partnership tested by imprisonment, migration or opposition to injustice, and faith is treated as an active conviction that demands courage rather than as decorative period background.
