The truest treasure is found deep in the heart.

Life in Grand Coeur, Idaho, is so different! Back in her beloved Virginia, Shannon Adair loved nursing injured soldiers back to health. But in this rough-and-tumble place where her father has been called to lead the church, she’s not sure where she fits in. Then a critically ill woman arrives, and Shannon knows her place at last: to care for this dear woman and ease her pain.

Matthew Dubois is a stagecoach driver through and through. But his widowed sister is dying and he’s about to inherit his young nephew. So he takes a job at the Wells, Fargo express office in Grand Coeur until he can find the one thing he needs to get back on the stage: a wife!

What neither of them knows is that someone is at work behind the scenes. Someone who cares for them both, and knows exactly what these two need: each other!

Robin Lee Hatcher is one of my favorite authors, and Heart of Gold was another can’t-put-it-down story. I loved it and am sure you will too. — Francine Rivers, New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love

You can never go wrong with a romance by Robin Lee Hatcher. She has a gift for finding the heart of a story, bringing her characters to life and making a reader care. She has done it beautifully in Heart of Gold. Her hero and heroine were as real to me as good friend. Though they had challenges, they dealt with the things that kept them apart with wisdom and honesty, carried along by a gripping story that was impossible to put down. — Mary Connealy, Award Winning Author of Out of Control

Thoroughly enjoyable and sprinkled with delightful “sigh-worthy” moments, Heart of Gold explores what it means to not only love from the heart, but to see others—and love them—with the heart of Christ. — Tamera Alexander, best-selling author of The Inheritance and A Lasting Impression

Robin Lee Hatcher has done it again! Heart of Gold is an incredible story of deep conviction and spiritual growth, all blended with romance and a touch of sassy heroine thrown in for good measure. I could hardly put it down and found myself longing for more when the story drew to an end. — Tracie Peterson, award-winning, best-selling author of Song of Alaska and Striking a Match series
