The Shepherd’s Heart was Lynnette Bonner’s debut series, beginning with Rocky Mountain Oasis in 2009. Set on the American frontier, the four books follow settlers and homesteaders building lives in the Rocky Mountain region. Each novel centers on a different character’s journey toward love and faith, with the harsh realities of frontier living providing the backdrop.
High Desert Haven, Fair Valley Refuge, and Spring Meadow Sanctuary (all 2012) rounded out the series. The titles reflect the pattern of each book: characters in tough circumstances finding both a safe place and a romantic partner. Bonner established her voice with this series, combining historical detail with inspirational themes in a way she would continue throughout her career.
