About this listen

In this striking collection of novellas explore the rich tapestry of 19th century Canada through the eyes of three remarkable women: a pioneer, an abolitionist, and a feminist. Their stories intertwine across generations, illuminating strong women, tough choices and stories that'll stick with you long after you've turned the final page.

In book 1, Journey of Hope, meet Claire, a passionate young mother who embarks on a perilous 900-mile journey across early-19th-century British North America with her husband Harold and their infant son. Fleeing an abusive father-in-law, Claire soon discovers that the vast wilderness holds as many trials as it does opportunities. As the idyllic dream of a new life transforms into a grueling struggle for survival, Claire must navigate the treacherous terrain of both the land and her crumbling marriage. Will they make it, or will the harsh realities of pioneer life tear them apart?

In Rose’s Assignment, book 2, meet Rose, a member of the local vigilance society who is tasked with caring for Judith, a young Black woman fleeing from the horrors of slavery. As Rose navigates prejudices within her town and indifference within her family, she fights to get Judith the care she needs. Can she bridge the gap between their worlds, or will the shadows of racism extinguish their bond?

Finally, in book 3, The Unmarriable Kind, enter the classroom of Lucretia, a spirited teacher challenging the confines of 1880s society. She's not interested in marriage. She's seen how it's trapped the women around her, and she wants none of it. When a forward-thinking headmaster arrives at her school, shaking things up with his progressive ideas, Lucretia faces an internal battle between tradition and her own ambitions. Will she defy societal pressures and embrace the possibility of love, or will she choose to forge her path alone?

The Trail Blazers offers a gripping exploration of resilience, the power of sisterhood, the courage it takes to chart one’s destiny, and the power of women to change the world one step at a time. So grab a copy, settle in, and get ready to be inspired!
