Two Story Hearth standalones that stand apart from the Welsh mythology at the heart of the catalogue, and reveal something in the standing-apart.

To Catch a Dream — a contemporary romance with no magic, no folklore, no mythology. Caitlin is twenty-six, strong, and genuinely content with her life. Will makes that contentment feel like it might be missing something she hadn't noticed was absent. The question is entirely ordinary and entirely real. Is what you feel worth the risk of acting on it?

Cabbages & Kings — historical fiction set in 1198, told through Alana Dale's honest and clear-eyed account of the Robin Hood legend from inside the village rather than the greenwood. No magic. Just the cost of seeing clearly when the story everyone tells would prefer you didn't look too closely.

Both of them ask what the mythology asks, without the mythology to carry it. Both of them know that love costs something real.

Historical isn't one of my favorites when it comes to genre but this one had enough romance and mystery to keep me interested. The writing was intriquing and very well done. It made me feel as if I could see and feel what was happening to and with the characters. Stephen was a bit odd at first, I didn't know what to think of him but he made me laugh and smile. And then I fell in love with him and with Sybil. The secondary type characters also made me smile and feel good. Which is always fun because sometimes the other characters get put into the background and you don't feel them, but not in this story. I am so glad I got to review this one

This book is really good. I loved it from the beginning. You will be reminded of a book from the other series that you may think that it connected to it. It was really intruding. You will learn how to deal with some really serious issues.

The issues are a various of different things. One person in this book can show how they deal with geif and it not all good. You get to experience some things going on Trail as well. I would recommend this book to any one that likes historical fiction, a bit of civil war era, romance.

Though I am not going to make you decide I will let you decide for yourself if you want to read it or not and rate for yourself.
