In her new homeland of Iowa, she must risk heartbreak and uncertainty for her dreams to flourish.

Maya Bredesen and her husband plan to journey from Norway to a new life at her cousin's boardinghouse in America, but on one last fateful fishing trip, a fierce winter storm steals away her husband. With her dreams for the future crushed, Maya is left grieving on the voyage to Iowa, accompanied instead by her brother, who plans to finish his seminary degree.

Arriving at a boardinghouse spilling over with orphans and a newly married couple, Maya struggles to find her place amid the chaos. A new friendship develops between her and Eben Miller, the reserved, kind farmer next door, but just as Maya begins to recover from her wounded heart, more tragedy engulfs her. As she and Eben weather trials together, can they overcome the difficulties this new land holds when it seems so far from becoming home?

This Christian fiction historical book by Lauraine Snelling paints a heartwarming story of family and love on the Midwestern frontier for fans of frontier romance, Janette Oke, and Tracie Peterson.

Family, tragedy, struggles, and love

A lovely story about life. It’s always a good story when you hear about how people struggle through daily happenings, yet find way to make life a bit easier. Love this story. Ready for book #3.

Great story

Cadence of the reader's speech was annoying to me, didn't seem to have a natural flow.
