A Western Heart (The Heart of the West) Kindle Edition
From award-winning author, Liz Harris, comes an emotional tale of love and deception set in the sweeping state of Wyoming.
“Liz Harris’s vivid portrayal of 1880s mid-west America as a place ruled by the elements where neighbourly trust is essential to survival, is another sure hit.” (Daily Mail)
Wyoming, 1880
Childhood sweethearts Rose McKinley and Will Hyde have always been destined to marry, and with their parents just as keen on the match, there would seem to be nothing to stop them.
Except that Will has yet to propose to Rose.
And except that Cora, Rose’s younger sister, can see a better alternative match.
When the handsome Nate Galloway comes to town and turns Rose’s head, Cora, lovesick and fed up with the focus on Will and Rose, sees an opportunity to get what she wants, which is Will.
A Western Heart, an unforgettable story of love, is perfect for readers of Penelope Williamson, Santa Montefiore, Dinah Jefferies, Kristin Hannah, Fiona Valpy and Colleen McCullough.
What readers said about A Bargain Struck, the first of the standalone novels in the series The Heart of the West.
It was as though Liz Harris was actually born and brought up amongst these people. The research was meticulous and like others who have already reviewed this book, I got hooked from page one. Denise Barnes (Amazon review)
There is drama, heartache, acceptance and romance in this lovely book. Mrs Sally P. Stackhouse (Amazon Vine Voice)
It’s a very good read. I hope others enjoy it as much as I have. Carol McGrath (Amazon review)
Harris captures the period and the sense of place so well I felt as though I was there. Jennifer’s Reviews (Amazon Vine Voice)
The characters were all well-defined and likeable. Ms Harris has set herself high standards by taking us out of our comfort zone, first of all to Ladakh (The Road Back) in the Himalayas then into the American West. Well done! Lanky Lady (Amazon Review)
This is one of those rare books I'll be reading again in the future. Salbag (Amazon Review)
This novel is beautifully told and I couldn’t put it down! Christina (Goodreads Review)

About the author

After graduating in Law in the UK, Liz moved to California where she led a varied life - from cocktail waitressing on Sunset Strip to secretary to the CEO of a large Japanese trading company. Upon returning to England, she completed a degree in English and then taught for a number of years before developing her writing career.
Her debut novel, THE ROAD BACK, was voted Book of the Year 2012 by US Coffee Time & Romance, and in the following year, A BARGAIN STRUCK was shortlisted for the RoNA for Best Romantic Historical. These and THE LOST GIRL, EVIE UNDERCOVER, THE ART OF DECEPTION, the last two being contemporary novels set in Italy, were shortlisted in their respective categories by the Festival of Romantic Fiction. A WESTERN HEART, a novella set in Wyoming 1880, was published digitally and as an audio book.
THE DARK HORIZON introduced readers to The Linford Series, a sweeping saga set between the wars. It was followed by THE FLAME WITHIN and THE LENGTHENING SHADOW. Each of three books can be read as a standalone, and they are now available in a box set, THE LINFORD COLLECTION.
Her most recent novels, DARJEELING INHERITANCE, COCHIN FALL, HANOI SPRING and SIMLA MIST comprise THE COLONIALS. Each is a standalone set in a different location, with different characters, in different years.
EINE ERBSCHAFT IN DARJEELING, the translation into German of DARJEELING INHERITANCE, was published in July 2022, and was followed by LIEBE UND VERRAT IN COCHIN (the German version of COCHIN FALL) in October 2022.
AM TAGESENDE (THE DARK HORIZON) was published in February, 2023, and will be followed later in the year by DIE WIEDERKEHR (THE FLAME WITHIN) and IM DÄMMERLICHT (THE LENGTHENING SHADOW). All of Liz's German translations are by Ingrid Price-Gschlössl.
A second edition of THE ROAD BACK was published in August 2022, and this was followed by the publication in November 2022 of IN A FAR PLACE, which tells the story of one of the characters in THE ROAD BACK, the missionaries' son, Peter Henderson.
Liz's latest series is a trilogy, THREE SISTERS, each of which tells the story of one of the daughters of John Hammond, owner of several haberdashery stores. THE LOOSE THREAD, published in 2024, will be followed in September 2024 by THE
SILKEN KNOT. THE WOVEN LIE will be published early in 2025.
Liz now lives in Windsor, Berkshire. She's a member of The Romantic Novelists’ Association, The Historical Novel Society, and The Society of Authors. She gives talks and workshops at literary festivals and conferences. Her hobbies are theatre, cinema, reading and cryptic crosswords.

5.0 out of 5 stars A delightful story!
My first read of the year was A Western Heart by Liz Harris. It was a delightful story which transported me back to 1880s Wyoming. It gripped me from the start and I would love a sequel to see what happened next in the lives of the characters who were both likeable and very believable.
