Years later, Hannah must journey back to the place she no longer calls home. Can she find the forgiveness and belonging she so desperately desires?

Career
She was raised on a farm in Wabash County, Indiana, the eldest of four children. She has three brothers: Randy (who died in 1990), Rick, and David. Coble’s early books were short historical romances published by Barbour Publishing under its Heartsong Presents imprint.
The first four novels were set in Wyoming.
After a visit to Wyoming, where he had lived, she was inspired to do what she’d longed to do for several years: actually write a book Wyoming became the setting for her first four romance novels, set in the wild West of the 1860s: Where Leads the Heart, Plains of Promise, The Heart Answers and To Love a Stranger.

Maybe that"s why all my stories have action and adventure in them.".
