Untie My Heart

In the heart-warming conclusion to Jansen Schmidt’s Family Ties series, set against the enchanting backdrop of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, a love story begins, igniting a spark of hope and weaving destinies into a tapestry of love and healing.

Widowed and grieving, Mesa Adler retreats to a remote cabin in Jackson Hole, determined to start over. She isn’t looking for love, only a way forward.

Enter Noble Jabeaux, former soldier turned small-town carpenter, who offers friendship when she needs it most. What begins as kindness grows into something more, a connection that deepens into something neither expected or planned.

When Mesa’s young daughter is taken by her grieving grandmother, her fragile new life begins to unravel. With everything at stake, Mesa must rely on the man who’s become her closest ally. But to move forward, she’ll have to face her grief and decide if she’s ready to embrace the love growing between them.
Because sometimes, starting over means trusting your heart…even when it’s still healing.
