AFter watching this movie, I bought this book at a library book sale and it was even better than the movie! The love that grows between the main character and the father and daughter who lost their wife/mother is wonderful and you feel as though you are part of their family

Wonderful story. It reminded me very much of the old TV show, "Wagon Train". It is the story of a group heading West, all the trials and hardships. Inspirational. I enjoyed it.

Marty heads west with her husband, only to lose him. She marries a kind widower in name only with the promise of a home and passage back east in the spring in exchange for looking after his young daughter. This is the first of an 8 part series that has since been made into some movies. This is a Christian romance. One of my favorite books of all times, and now one of my favorite authors.

I wasn't 5 sentences into this book when the author had my full attention. Wonderful book that provides insight into some of the difficult situations frontier women faced. I highly recommend it.
