A lovely story about a Quaker woman who moves to the plains of Eastern Colorado during the Depression/Dustbowl years to marry a rancher she barely knows. Old secrets, unrealistic expectations, hard times on the ranch, clashing beliefs, stubbornness, underlying love and determination made this a very good book. I enjoyed it very much.

A good look into the beliefs of Quakers, and the struggles they face trying to tap into their Inner Light.
