Having lived through the outbreaks of cholera, the horrors of the battlefield, and the questionable cleanliness of the Barrack Hospital in Scutari near Istanbul as he recovered from losing his leg during the Crimean War, Nantze turns to helping others as a way to overcome his injuries. Once able to hobble around, the gentle spoken man with the gift of encouragement uses his knowledge as a blacksmith to make himself a mechanical leg. When he starts making them for other men in the amputee ward, he’s instantly hailed as a miracle worker.
Finding herself bereft of her brother and father and in need of a blacksmith to run the shop their deaths left behind, Katie Christison, a quick tempered beauty known for speaking her mind, is forced to choose between hiring a man to work the bellows and succumbing to her overwhelming feelings of loss.
Seeing that Kate prefers the latter, a group of her fathers friends intervene on her behalf and advertise for a blacksmith, but with Kates sharp tongue and fiery temper, they are all left wondering whether Nantze can live up to his name and somehow forge together the pieces of Kates broken heart before she succeeds in running him off. $0.99 on Kindle.
