I enjoyed your story. Parts felt somewhat unrealistic. 1. how was she able to be on the wagon train without paying for anything. You needed money to even sign on. Plus money for all the food needed along the way. 2. Then when they reached California.. How did they have money to get married and the farm.. Working part-time would be barely enough for food, clothing, and lodging. Those parts did not feel realistic. But the story aside from that was very enjoyable.

A truly western adventure on the wagon train, this unbelievable dramatic story of heading west to find a new life in California was filled with intriguing moments of adventure, love and controversy. Characters that are truly inspiring and compelling, this author paints a convincing picture of what life was like for the wagon train people who had the courage to find a new life out west. A truly inspiring story.

Lydia Olsen really did it this time! This story about a girl and boy being raised by their stepfather, who was about to force a marriage on the girl, to his boss’s son, whom she had never met, grabs you right then and doesn’t let you go until the happily ever after! So, so much happens all along the way. I highly recommend this book. You’ll love all the characters and the lovely way that Ms. Olsen describes everything so that you can see it in your mind’s eye!

I really liked this story. It was well developed throughout. I hate it when the story I’d developing and suddenly it rushes to end in 2.5 pages.This didn’t do that. It worked right up to the ending. I love this author. I highly recommend any of her stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars I'd recommend this book.
Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2021

Lots of trials and tribulations to go through, yet they made it with love, friends, family and a community. I only saw two spelling errors. One: Irene was spelled Irenr and the author used the word "I" at the beginning of the sentence only there were two "II"s instead of one. Scene depictions were great. As well being in the wagon train all those months helped the characters grow immensely. Good read.
