Journey now to Galveston, Texas, of 1880...
Where is Mrs. Smith’s granddaughter? Who is the mysterious Mrs. Smith?
Pinkerton agent Jonah Cahill is hired by the mysterious widow to find her lost granddaughter, rumored to be living in Galveston, Texas. Though Jonah prefers to travel alone, Mrs. Smith insists that she and her companion accompany him. Madeline Latour, investigative reporter, has been acting as Mrs. Smith’s assistant for several months, and Madeline will not allow anyone—even a Pinkerton agent—to ruin the story of a lifetime. The pair forges an uneasy truce as the investigation grows dangerous.
Is there a bigger story beyond a missing girl to be revealed?

My Review
4 STARS!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading My Heart Belongs in Galveston
TX, Madeline’s Search. The history of the area was fascinating and I appreciated
Y’Barbo including detailed author notes in the back of the book.
Jonah Cahill, Pinkerton agent, and Madeline Latour, an
investigat
ive reporter who has an interest in finding lost treasure—not
necessarily of the human kind—team up to find a widow’s long lost granddaughter. The two have a history causing a lack of
trust between them but find themselves still drawn emotionally to the other
despite giving it their best effort to tamp it down. Their interactions are humorous and at times
keen, exhibiting a snappy rhythm throughout the story, along with several
other mysterious elements that add to the intrigue of the missing
granddaughter.
Needless to say, Y’Barbo is an highly acclaimed author who
never fails to provide me a few hours of lighthearted entertainment through
accomplished wit, savory characters, sweet romance, and a gentle faith theme.
Fans of Christian historical fiction will especially enjoy this story
