Description:Surrounded by war, can she safely reach her family in California?Lucy Baxter lived peacefully in Kansas with her aunt until, by 1863, the War Between the States made life for two lone women insufferable—and dangerous. Her dream of teaching school is shattered. With her fiancé and her Uncle Wilcox among the fallen, Aunt Caroline has decided to get both of them to safety by traveling to California to join Lucy’s father. Only, Lucy—never fond of her stepmother—stayed behind when her father left years early. That stepmother died, but her father married again. Will he and his new wife welcome her? Malachi Foster’s dreams of striking it rich in the gold and silver fields in the West left him disillusioned. Tired of living like a rodent in a burrow, he accepts a job driving oxen-pulled wagons loaded with supplies for the mining towns he recently walked away from. When asked to travel by stagecoach to Kansas to help drive a small freight train returning with goods found only in the East, Malachi hesitates. If he travels closer to the battlefields, there might be those who question why he is not enlisted in one army or the other. In the end, a gut feeling—or maybe something whispering to his spirit—helps him decide. He will go. Although written as a standalone book, you might also enjoy reading the author's two related Prairie Roses Collection books, Pearl and Clara.
