Born and raised in the mountains of West Virginia, Amanda Martin has dreamed of becoming a country music singer and songwriter since she was six. Now twenty years later, Amanda is still chasing her dream in Nashville where she is slowly realizing that becoming a star is not as easy as dreaming about it. The one thing keeping her going is the feeling of peace she has discovered within the walls of a tiny clapboard church. US Army SFC Carter Hinson has been on a hard-fought quest to fulfill his own noble aspiration for eight years. When he and Amanda meet at a Nashville honkytonk where she is performing with her best friend, their attraction is instant and intense. As their relationship begins, Amanda quickly realizes that Carter is different from the other men she has dated. Devoted to God and her vows to remain pure, Amanda now must decide whether Carter is the right man for her as a chain of events unfolds that tests her faith in ways she never imagined. The Cost of Her Heart is an unforgettable story of friendship, family, and most importantly, undying love as a Nashville singer and an army soldier attempt to find their happily-ever-after.
