A Star Over Texas

In 1890 Waco, Stella Barrington has settled into a quiet life of caring for her father and sponsoring a university literary society.

When Harvard mathematics professor Frank Stenz arrives as a visiting lecturer, the intimate correspondence they have shared must stand the test of meeting in person.

Certain that her plain face will discourage courtship, Stella instead blossoms as Frank pursues her with steady persistence and they try to carry their bond beyond letters.

A Christmas mystery soon pulls the pair into unexpected danger.

Frank is left weighing a prestigious career opportunity against a love he once believed would remain forever out of reach.
