About this listen
From Chapter 2 :
He was looking for another woman and boy. The young woman stopped and looked at the crowd as though she didn't know what direction to go in. She looked so lost and scared he felt sorry for her. Not only that, she was just a girl. She couldn't be a whole lot older than the frail little boy whose hand she had a tight grip on. One thing was for sure, the ragged clothes they wore wouldn't keep them warm in this weather. Suddenly, a new kind of chill ran up his spine. What if. Surely not.
Also from Chapter 2:
“Kelly Waller?” he asked in a clipped, low tone of voice.
“Yes,” she whispered, as she looked him over again. This couldn't possibly be Jard Woods. He certainly was much younger than she expected, and he certainly didn't have a thick beard or mustache. Could this be someone sent to pick her and Adam up? He did have dark almost black eyes glowing with, what she thought was, barely contained anger.
“Follow me,” he said, as he reached down and took the paper poke from her hand. She bent down and lifted Adam into her arms to keep him from having to walk in the deep snow.

Story
Young Julie Harmon works "hard as a man", they say, so hard that at times she's not sure she can stop. People depend on her to slaughter the hogs and nurse the dying. People are weak, and there is so much to do. At just 17 she marries and moves down into the valley of Gap Creek, where perhaps life will be better. But Julie and Hank's new life in the valley, in the last years of the 19th century, is more complicated than the couple ever imagined.

Story
One Promise Too Late is Peggy's forty-first novel; her forty-sixth book. Each book resonates with Peggy's authentic Appalachian mountain voice and her gift to engross the reader in the story. From Chapter 18: “You know I don’t want to leave you here by yourself, but I must. I don’t dare stay with you any longer. It wouldn’t seem right. It wouldn’t be right.” It might not seem right, but that didn’t stop me from wanting him to stay if it was only another minute or two. I couldn’t remember anyone ever holding me close, comforting me. Mom certainly hadn’t. Neither had Dad. ...

Story
Amazon #1 Bestseller in Frontier & Pioneer Western Fiction Praise for Kari August: “Entertaining, original, exceptionally well written . . . impressive storytelling talents.” Midwest Book Review The harsh and rugged Colorado frontier of 1875 is not the type of place most would consider suitable for a recent widow to establish a home of her own. Yet that is exactly what Henrietta Schodde determines she will do as she impetuously buys a cabin in the newly forming settlement of Estes Park. Despite assurances from Henrietta that the locals appear amiable, her relatives are concerned and ...
