In the harsh, unforgiving wilderness of 1870s America, Reverie Braxton is a young girl whose world shatters in a single, brutal moment. When she is only 13, Reverie is left with a heart as cold and unfeeling as the frozen earth surrounding their homestead. Consumed by grief and a thirst for revenge, she vows to never again show mercy to the world that has stolen everything from her. This gripping novel explores the devastation of loss, the burden of survival, and the strength it takes to endure a life that has forgotten how to feel. As Reverie and her siblings are thrust into a harsh existence far from the safety of their childhood home, Reverie's sorrow morphs into something darker-something that binds her to her past and makes it nearly impossible to move forward. In a desperate search for something to hold onto, Reverie wanders through the seasons, her emotions frozen in time. A story of survival, grief, and the ghosts of the past, Her Frozen Heart is an exploration of one girl's journey through hell and the unyielding hope that, sometimes, the only way to heal is by breaking.

"You're a hell of a drug, Marianne," he whispered against her hair. "And I swear to God, the biggest trouble I've been in." She smiled, her hand resting over his heart. "A drug? By any means poisonous?" "Far from it, my girl, far from it. But deadly regardless." 🌻 A simple western love story with a twist. Long. Slow burn. A comfort read. Death scenes typical of western dynamics. Nothing too mature in nature. Soft, some hurt and comfort, lots of adventure and mysteries, and everything I've always loved about fanfiction in general. Feel free to comment. Enjoy the show. :)
