Books like Chasing Charity by Marcia Gruver
Charity Bloom faces heartbreak when her best friend runs off with her fiancé, leaving her stranded at their wedding altar.

Buddy sees more than riches in the land—he sees a chance for redemption and a new life with Charity. But the fate that lies beneath the surface is not the only treasure at stake. An ex‑fiancé arrives, desperate to win her back, and a deceitful rogue threatens to turn the newfound prospects into peril. As faith, friendship, and love collide, Charity must choose between the rough‑neck’s sincerity and the old love’s deceit in a story of second chances, faith, and thrilling Texas adventures.
