Where the Cold Winds Whisper

By: Susan Leigh Carlton

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Some scars are carved by war. Others by love.

Montana, 1870. Elias Mercer, a disillusioned Civil War veteran, retreats to the frontier, seeking solitude and a chance to rebuild. But the land is as unforgiving as his memories, and desperation drives him to place an ad in The Matrimonial News.

Abigail Whitlow, a young widow with secrets of her own, answers his call. She arrives with a quiet strength that hides a storm of loss—and a five-year-old son she didn’t mention in her letters. As the harsh winter closes in, Elias and Abigail must navigate their fragile new partnership, learning to trust not only each other but also themselves.

But when Abigail’s brother-in-law, a bitter man with his own demons, comes to claim what he sees as his, their tenuous bond is tested. In a land as wild and untamed as their hearts, Elias and Abigail must decide if they can overcome their pasts to build a future—or if the frontier will claim them both.

In Where the Cold Winds Whisper, love is as rugged as the land, and redemption is hard won. If you like a story of second chances, resilience, and the enduring power of hope, this sweeping historical western will capture your heart and leave you breathless, and five-year-old Henry will tug at your heartstrings if you give him a chance.
