Runaway Heart : A Texas Romance

Adventure and Hero Journey themed category style romance novel. Female protagonist travels alone from 1859 London to 1859 Texas to find personal independence from an over reaching family. Conflicts include: ability for a woman to make her own decisions concerning her life; a women's status in marriage as an equal partner instead of subordinate silent partner; the idea that a woman loose and on her own in the world does not make her a loose, virtueless woman; the premise that a woman can save herself and her man and remain feminine. Protagonist learns over the course of the story that self-confidence and self-reliance not tears and petulance give her the strength to stand her ground and accomplish her goals. On her journey, the Protagonist changes from a weepy, resentful victim into a brave, action-oriented feminine Hero.
