The Glow of Love

A Brandon Flowers Fanfiction Romance. Catherine Williamson leaves Scotland at the start of the new century, 1900, with her parents and sets sail for America, full of the promise of owning their own land and tilling the fertile sun-soaked soil of the American west. But after the loss of both her parents during the voyage, her plans change dramatically and she finds herself a charity case, taken in by a minister and his wife. Catherine is marked, not only by her grief and her trapped circumstances, but by a red circular birthmark that covers the skin around her eye like a patch. This singles her out, makes her known, when all she wants is to disappear. That is until she meets a lonely homesteader, Brandon Flowers, who carries his own marks.
