Kate has had very few prospects in her quest to find a husband and at thirty-five, her hopes are beginning to fade. Because of her more flexible situation, her family decides to send her to Idaho to clear out the home of her deceased grandmother, which she grudgingly does, since in her own words she doesn’t have a real life anyway.

In the process of packing the house, she discovers an old journal and is intrigued to find out whom it belonged to. With no name to identify the owner, she assumes it must belong to one of her ancestors. She begins to hunt for clues within the book and in her grandmother’s family history records.

But her life takes a sudden turn when an old friend, Luke West, now a widower with six kids calls and asks her out. Could this man be the answer to her prayers?

In the Quiet Heart is a tale of finding joy despite the heartache and trials we experience in this life.
