Healing Hope (The Rio Verde Series)

Luz Baca had it all. An ever-expanding circle of friends. The love of her life. A beautiful daughter. A humble, happy life in a quiet, safe town. Until a cowardly criminal took the life of her husband. Then the rock-solid faith that had sustained her for her whole life was left shattered. Shattered and quickly replaced with a hollow emptiness as she finds herself wandering through a life that has lost meaning and purpose. Then a for sale sign appears in front of a historic home and a spark comes back into Luz's heart. And when a stranger offers her friendship, understanding, and a chance to make an old dream come true, the new path he offers -- along with his humbling faith -- starts to bring light and meaning back into her life. With his help, Luz quickly discovers the faith she'd thought she'd lost, a second chance at love, and the healing power of hope.
