Keeper of my Heart by Heidi Gray McGill

She’s never met a man who could keep up. He’s never met a challenge he couldn’t solve. But when love and faith collide, will either of them surrender their hearts?
What happens when the very traits that kept you alive are the ones God asks you to lay down?
On the Missouri frontier, Cecelia Grace Trexler Shankel has learned to survive on her own—riding hard, shooting straight, and trusting no one but herself. She has no intention of changing that for any man.
James “Jimmy” Reeves is her opposite in every way. A brilliant but socially awkward pharmacist, he trusts formulas over people and precision over instinct. He has come west to learn practical medicine—not to be undone by a woman who refuses to be contained.
From the moment they meet, Cecelia and Jimmy clash. She calls him rigid and bookish. He finds her impossible to predict. But when a smallpox outbreak threatens the town, theory is no longer enough. Jimmy is forced into decisions that demand courage, faith, and a strength he is not sure he has.
As respect grows into something deeper, Cecelia begins to question the independence she has always relied on—and Jimmy discovers that some things cannot be solved, only surrendered.
In a world where independence means survival, can two people learn to trust God—and each other—with their hearts?
Heidi Gray McGill is a Selah Award finalist and five-time NEST Award-winning author of Christian historical and contemporary fiction. Her Discerning God’s Best series has earned over 3,500 five-star reviews on Amazon, where readers describe her work as “faith-filled fiction with flawed but lovable characters.” She began her writing journey in March 2020, after retirement, proving that God’s calling has no expiration date.
A sought-after encourager in the writing community, Heidi speaks and writes on the craft of storytelling, writing with biblical conviction, and reaching readers across generational and cultural divides. She is both independently and traditionally published, and she writes despite progressive vision loss, which has only sharpened her perspective on what it means to walk by faith and not by sight.
