The Lady's Mine

By: Francine Rivers

Narrated by: Kate Forbes

She's new to this lawless mining town.
He's one of its most prominent citizens.
Neither wants much to do with the other.
At first.

1875. When Kathryn Walsh arrives in tiny Calvada, a mining town nestled in the Sierra Nevadas, falling in love is the furthest thing from her mind. Banished from Boston by her wealthy stepfather, she has come to claim an inheritance from the uncle she never knew: a defunct newspaper office on a main street overflowing with brothels and saloons, and a seemingly worthless mine. Moved by the oppression of the local miners and their families, Kathryn decides to relaunch her uncle’s newspaper - and then finds herself in the middle of a maelstrom, pitted against Calvada’s most powerful men. But Kathryn intends to continue to say - and publish - whatever she pleases, especially when she knows she’s right.

Matthias Beck, owner of a local saloon and hotel, has a special interest in the new lady in town. He instantly recognizes C. T. Walsh’s same tenacity in the beautiful and outspoken redhead?and knows all too well how dangerous that family trait can be. While Kathryn may be right about Calvada’s problems, her righteousness could also get her killed. But when the handsome hotelier keeps finding himself on the same side of the issues as the opinionated Miss Walsh, Matthias’s restless search for purpose becomes all about answering the call of his heart.

Everyone may be looking to strike it rich in this lawless boomtown, but it’s a love more precious than gold that will ultimately save them all.

Loved it!!!!!

I have been reading Francine River's books for a long time, but knowing this was a true story, makes this one really special. While waiting for my first grandchild, I read Voice In The Wind to my daughter and my Hadassah just turned 20, has always loved to read and write stories, and now works in the small library at a Christian radio station. I think I'll have to buy this book for her. I listened to it on Audible.

I really enjoyed this book

Another great story by Francine Rivers

Francine Rivers never fails to draw me in. I enjoy that her stories are faith based and always teach about faith, hope, and forgiveness. A highly enjoyable read.

Ms Rivers never disappoints

When asked what books I have read/listened to more than once I can honestly say most everything by Francine Rivers. I enjoy the audio version and print versions equally. This is another story about strong capable woman, who doesn’t need to compromise her faith.
