About this eBook
She ventured west with the man she loved, but in one day her whole world crumbled around her . . .
Nineteen-year-old Marty Claridge starts west with her adventurous, boyish husband, Clem, seeking to claim land and hoping for good fortune. But when the venture turns suddenly to tragedy, Marty is left alone with her great loss. And coupled with her grief and heartache is the grim reality that there is no way to return home.
Clark Davis and his little girl, Missie, are also in great need. Clark's wife has died, leaving him to care to Missie and the farm at the same time. His offer to Marty comes with good intention, but will courage and faith be enough to bring them to true love?
Join the generations of readers who have fallen in love with this landmark story from beloved author Janette Oke.

I Love all of Jeanette Oke's Books. I have read all of Jeanette Oke's Love Comes Softly Books, and I have seen all of her Movies from the Love Comes Softly Books. I Just wish that they could make Movies from all of her other books. I had all of Jeanette Oke's Books until they were Stolen from my home, by my Care Givers.

A very simple read. It makes you want to do house work and gives an appreciation of what pioneer women had to face.
