Nora Beth Hale is a woman who lost nearly everything; and is learning how to build a life for herself for the very first time. Now though, she is doing it on her own—at her remote, forty acre off-grid ranch she has named Ravens Ridge—in the high mountains of the American Southwest.

Through quiet solitude, wide open skies, and an environment that challenges the strongest to survive—she is shaping a new life for herself through tending to her land, her animals and her heart. Her story is unfolding somewhere between loss and love and daily grit.

Here, healing is not sudden—it is gathered slowly, season by season.

Set against a backdrop that requires much endurance, and great beauty— her journey explores loss, resilience, faith, and the persistent return of hope. Through her life, readers are invited into a story of rebuilding—not only of land and home, but of the heart itself.
