Synopsis
Will this epic journey be their second chance or the final heartbreak?
Heidi Wallace came west with secrets. When she accompanied her cartologist cousin to map terrain in the Montana Territory, she never imagined he would die from a snakebite. As she and her maid bury the body in this wild country, the last person she expects to come to their aid is the man she's no longer sure she wants to find. But now that Ben Lane is standing before her... her heart demands answers.
My Review
I've come to love these intrepid travelers in the rough wilderness where danger lurks around every boulder, yet their faith and camaraderie get them through even the most trying of circumstances. The original band has grown quite a bit as they have married and extended their families and friendships. This was a fun one to read since I not only share my name with the main character, I also love to draw! I don't know that I'd be as dedicated as she is to her job of detailing every view along the river as she maps it as well. The group that joins her is patient and supportive, and it was sweet that she and Ben had the opportunity to get close again, after his lack of communication with her in the past. Dangerous falls, dangerous wildlife, and dangerous tribes ramp up the intensity in between slower scenes of introspection and connection.
