About this listen
Despite Trials that Threaten their Path Forward, Hope Dawns for a Future Filled with Love.
Kat Wadsworth and Sebastian Jones never imagined their lives would entwine so closely. Forced to flee on a wagon train from a vengeful uncle and an unknown gunman, they live in a hidden canyon with the family that rescued them. But as the days turn into months, they each have separate reasons for wanting to move back to society, and the best way to the independence they desperately crave might be through a marriage of convenience.
However, settling into their homestead in Cheyenne, Wyoming, reveals a different reality for Kat. Her new husband becomes consumed by his inventions, leaving her feeling lonely and isolated. And just when they think they’ve left the danger behind, a mysterious attacker lurks in the shadows, threatening the new life they’ve built. Together, they must confront the perils from their pasts to forge a future with hope and the prospect of love.

When Bruce Cowan takes his family and flees Boston to homestead out west, he figured the journey to California to be long but safe. Their first day out reveals how wrong he is and the perilous dangers of the Santa Fe Trail. It would have been a massacre but for Trent and Pat MacLeod. Trent favors a Sharps .50 caliber buffalo rifle, while his younger brother Pat packs two Texas Navy Colts. They both prove deadly and a force to be reckoned with. The Cowans and the McLeod brothers forge a bond those first few days, sustained in part by Trent's attraction to the 18-year-old Becky Cowan.

Enjoyable, clean and exciting
I have enjoyed every book I have read or listened to by this author. This one deals w real issues of the past (women being locked up in asylums despite not being mentally ill and the horrific treatment there) but not so much as to be overwhelming. A lovely clean romance and HEA too. I’m looking forward to the next book.

Terrible narrator
This particular narrator simply ruined the book for me. I normally enjoy Mary Connealy’s writings and preorder them as soon as I can; however, if this narrator will be involved, I will pass.
