Bright Morning Star — J.R. Biery
BRIGHT MORNING STAR
Migrating west is hard for everyone, especially women. Most adjust quickly to the hardship, but not all. Claire Wimberley is a blonde, blue-eyed beauty with little in her head, but dreams and a love for the latest fashion. Although she has worked in the mills in Boston, she has been the spoiled only child of a middle class family.
Her best friends are poor Irish girls, Lynne and Bonnie, whose families are always struggling. When first one, then the other, face terrible tragedies, Claire is the first to offer a helping hand and her loving support. Soon she is traveling the Oregon Trail with Lynne's little sister and brothers and her best friend, Bonnie.
Along the trail, Claire must face the fact that she is in love with a married man despite his bitter wife. She is able to be strong until Bonnie is captured by Indians and she has to face a new crisis alone. Can a girl who has never worn anything second-hand in her life, settle for a second-hand husband?
