This was my first Christian book and I truly enjoyed it. It is well written, easy to read, and just an enjoyable book. I've seen the movie and the book is so much better!!

I loved the movie....but I could NOT read this book. The dialogues were so hard to read. I know the author was trying to capture the nuances of the speech of that time...but it was so distracting. I didn't even finish it.

She ventured west with the man she loved, but in one day her whole world crumbled around her-
A very good book as all of Oke's books are.
