Book 2 of the Trails of the Heart series

A family heading west on the Oregon Trail stakes its future on the promise of land and a new beginning, only to discover that the journey demands far more than enthusiasm. Disease, weather, river crossings, shortages, and conflict within the wagon company force travelers to depend on people who were strangers when the trail began. Romance develops under conditions where survival and family responsibility cannot be separated from personal hopes. Rachel Wesson’s frontier novel uses the overland journey to explore endurance, community, loss, and the dreams that kept emigrants moving toward Oregon despite the cost.
