A Trail So Lonesome
Book 1 of the Wagon Train Matches series
250 pages · First published 2023
A westward-bound woman joins an overland journey where loneliness is only one of the dangers waiting beyond settled country. Wagon-train travel brings illness, difficult terrain, shortages, and strangers who must become a functioning community if they hope to reach their destination. A developing romance offers companionship but also creates another vulnerability in a world where every mile can change a family’s future. Lacy Williams uses the trail setting for a clean Western romance about endurance, faith, and the bonds formed when people have no choice but to keep moving together.
