No matter how dark her night became, she knew God promised joy in the morning.
When Rachel realizes aging out of the orphanage is synonymous with being auctioned off to marry a stranger, she and her younger brother plan their escape.
A widower with a five-year-old son and infant daughter needs help for his children. Could a marriage of convenience be the answer to their problem?
The five travelers quickly become a family, and their hope of happiness becomes a promise fulfilled in the place they call home. Even when tragedy strikes, God sees them through their trials by surrounding them with friends whose love helps them heal.
Rachel’s adventurous life in 1858 Missouri brings more happiness than she ever expected and a heartbreak that nearly cost her everything. As she searches for the desire of her heart, she learns God has bigger plans than she could ever have imagined.

If you enjoy Historical Romance with a strong spiritual thread, you'll definitely want to read this book! Rarely do I find a novel, even among Christian Fiction, that so clearly represents godly Christian values and unapologetically highlights faith in Christ.
Early on in the story there was a surprise twist that caught me off guard, and I wasn't very happy about the event, but before I finished the book, it all made sense and the author brought the story to a satisfying end.
I listened on audio, and the narrator did a fabulous job with the various accents, including an Irish brogue.
I highly recommend this read for fans of Misty M. Beller, those who love stories set during the 1800s, or anyone who loves a book with a strong spiritual thread that will challenge you to go deeper in your walk with God.
