Wanted: A Trusting Heart (Silverpines Book 12) Kindle Edition

A series of disasters wipe out the men in the town of Silverpines, Oregon, leaving the women to take unconventional measures in order to save and grow their town.



A Chinook Indian by heritage, Dawn was orphaned and given to a white family as a slave. They raised her like one of their own, alongside their daughter Laura.
Dawn soon finds herself falling for Jake, who recently moved to Silverpines, following his brother from Texas. Jake gets to know Dawn well and soon realizes that he has fallen in love with her. The catch? Though society had come a long way, it still held prejudices against Native Americans, and the whites who married them. Through prejudice and calamities, the two will have to fight for their love and trust in one another with all their hearts.
Are Dawn and Jake willing to take the risk for love? Can they face the prejudices together? This is part of a series but a stand-alone read.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Amazon best-selling author, Barbara Goss, is married and lives in Western New York and to date has written 50 Christian/Clean Romance books, mostly westerns. She enjoys crossword puzzles, reading, swimming, and her feline writing helper, Molly, but not necessarily in that order. She writes exciting stories with a bit of God’s word spread within, without dominating the story.

Barbara began writing in 1988 and her first book, Forbidden Legacy, won first prize for fiction at a Christian Writers Convention in Titusville, Florida in 1989. This won her a book contract with Publishers: Fleming Revell and later Baker Books. She wrote four books for them under contract. She then took a few years off to work full time as a secretary to the county hospital and the local school system.

Barbara’s greatest influence in writing is the 100 books written by Grace Livingston Hill. As a Christian writer, Barbara weaves some godliness into the romance and adventure yet her books are always clean. Barbara is well on her way to catching up with Ms. Livingston.

She is now turning her wonderful Ebooks into Audiobooks. Look for them on Amazon and Audible.

Dawn, a Chinook woman who has lived with Laura’s white family, is in love with Jake, a white man. She knows how people think about her heritage and declines Jake’s court request. Can Jake help her to see he really loves her and doesn’t care of people’s opinion? And when all seemed okay a jealous woman turns everything. They both need to go to a lot to finally be together.
This is an really entertaining story who you want to read in one sitting. Another proof this is my favorite series. Can’t wait to read the next one.

Another wonderful addition to the Silverpines Series. This heartwarming story is about Dawn, an orphaned Indian who was taken in by a white family in town. Jake, has recently moved to Silverpines and he and Dawn find themselves drawn to each other. But wanting to get married stirs up prejudices in town and they have to pull together to fight for their love.
I cannot wait for more in this series, although each book can be read as a standalone. This series has been an amazing effort for all authors involved and Barbara Gross adds a great addition in this story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bit of a Murphy's Law Romance
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2019
I really enjoyed this one but it was very much a Murphy's Law romance... What can go wrong, will go wrong... can love conquer all the challenges that are thrown their way? It was a sweet and yet frustrating romance because of all of the challenges... It shows love is stronger than cultural differences and discrimination at a time when it was all to prevalent. I thought they did a good job with the narration too. I would recommend this one to those who enjoy a good clean romance set in the 1800's.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I enjoyed #12 in the Silver Pines series. This was a bit different as it did not include many of the citizens of this town. Mercy is a silly woman who does awful things to Dawn because Mercy wants Jake for herself. Poor Dawn is duped, chloroformed, and sent to Olympia, Washington, to get her out of the way so Mercy can work her charms on Jake. Doesn't work, as Jake loves Dawn and sees through Mercy. He takes off to find Dawn, who has been on an adventure of her own to try to get back to Silver Pines, her family, and especially back to Jake the man she loves with all her heart. Much angst, a few characters in Olympia and the Chinook Village near the ocean, are introduced before Dawn and Jake are reunited. I was exhausted by the end of this book.

This story follows Jake and Dawn, who were introduced in Wanted: Horse Breeder which was book two. I forgot how much I really wanted their story since I've been reading this series. I really am happy it was finally told. I loved both Jake and Dawn. It was also nice to revisit with Max and Laura.

I really love the Silverpines series and I can't wait for the next installment. Every book has been wonderful!! This has been a unique concept and I am enjoying the ride as Silverpines rebuilds. Great work to all the authors involved!

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2020
She was an Indian and half white, given to a white family not in bondage but as an equal. The story deals with prejudice of society and how she was looked at. When loves happen obstacles happen for both her and Jace, which will they marry. Interesting story. Given audio for my voluntary review and my honest opinion

Another great book in the Silverpines series. Barbara Goss does a fantastic job with this one. The story was unexpected at times and it had me saying, "What No!" Then it had me shaking my head and wanting to kill the heroine.

Oh, full of excitement, danger and misunderstandings. Would they ever get together, why were these things happening to Dawn, what had she done to deserve such treatment? Fabulous story, very much enjoyed and once again, I can't wait until the next in the series.
