  A Western adventure rooted in truth, forged in mystery. 
  The Black Hills stood untouched, unclaimed, and full of secrets when Ezra Kind carved his fate into a slab of sandstone. What began as a search for gold quickly turned into a desperate fight for survival — and a message that would echo through generations. 
  Decades later, as new settlers and fortune-seekers flood the Dakota Territory, two brothers uncover the half-buried stone and find themselves pulled into the mystery it holds. In a land where fact and folklore blur, where hope is weighed against hardship, the Kind family’s legacy stirs once again. 
  Based on real events and inspired by the legend of the Thoen Stone, The Kind Whisper launches The Kind Legacy Series — a sweeping historical Western filled with frontier grit, hidden truths, and the powerful ties of family. Along the way, it crosses paths with some of the West’s most iconic figures—including General George Custer, Wild Bill Hickok, and Calamity Jane. 
  Some treasures are buried in the earth. Others are buried in the heart. 
  Some whispers echo through time. 
  This is one of them.

  More than a year has passed since Marjan, Bahar, and Layla, the beautiful Iranian Aminpour sisters, sought refuge in the quaint Irish town of Ballinacroagh. Opening the beguiling Babylon Café, they charmed the locals with their warm hearts and delectable Persian cuisine, bringing a saffron-scented spice to the once-sleepy village. 
   
   
   
  But when a young woman with a dark secret literally washes up on Clew Bay Beach, the sisters' world is once again turned upside down. With pale skin and webbed hands, the girl is otherworldly, but her wounds tell a more earthly (and graver) story—one that sends the strict Catholic town into an uproar. The Aminpours rally around the newcomer, but each sister must also contend with her own transformation—Marjan tests her feelings for love with a dashing writer, Bahar takes on a new spiritual commitment with the help of Father Mahoney, and Layla matures into a young woman when she and her boyfriend, Malachy, step up their hot and heavy relationship. 
   
   
   
  Filled with mouthwatering recipes and enchanting details of life in Ireland, Rosewater and Soda Bread is infused with a lyrical warmth that radiates from the Aminpour family and their big-hearted Italian landlady, Estelle, to the whole of Ballinacroagh—and the world beyond.
