      About This Book

      In 1847, Marjory Turner struggles with the difficult journey west to the Oregon Territory. On the cusp of womanhood, she is ill equipped to deal with the hardships of her father's death and her mother's mysteriously irrational behavior as she is forced to take on the responsibility of her much younger siblings. But the trials strengthen Marjory, and she quickly matures into an independent, patient and compassionate young woman. Then, with her mother's death, she must face even more difficult decisions, and find a new destiny for herself and her family. With the help of Walter Wilkins, the young man assigned to drive their team, Marjory must find a courage equal to the task ahead and the strength to accept what may be the hardest thing of all - true love.

      Sharon Lee Thomas was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest and has always been fascinated with the epic story of the Oregon Trail. She recently traded her beloved Victorian home for a modern condo on Puget Sound.
