Driven by desperation, Grace Hawkins must forsake the affluent comfort of her upbringing to save herself from an arranged marriage. Disillusioned by her father's insistence, she forges a daring plan to escape the sinister hand of her intended. Peter Colton sees the Alaskan gold rush as an opportunity to establish his family's fledgling shipping business. An unexpected partnership enables him to pursue those dreams and opens the door to an acquaintance with Grace, who has purchased passage north. Drawn together by need and circumstance, Grace and Peter form a faltering friendship. But when her deserted fiancee continues to manipulate her loved ones, can she find peace in the wake of his wrath?

I like the way the author brings that time era to life and brings God’s redeeming love and amazing grace into the lives of many others.

Excellent Read

This wasn’t a complete waste of time but I enjoy deeper romances (nothing erotic) and I would’ve liked it to have more suspense. I could see this being an appropriate book for a 14 year old girl.

It was sweet but not my preference

This was quite different from the last series I had read. After adjusting to the new setting of the North, I settled in to hope that things would be all right.

This book took you on different avenues of deceit, evil and goodness, but there was many truths about God in this book about making sure that others don’t depend on you that they depend on God.

It was scary and sad to see what had happened to Grace’s family but it ended on a good note of Peter and Grace being married

The story had a happy ending
