About this product

Product Information

No one is more surprised than Mattie Spenser herself when Luke Spenser, considered the great catch of their small Iowa town, asks her to marry him. Less than a month later, they are off in a covered wagon to build a home on the Colorado frontier. Mattie's only company is a slightly mysterious husband and her private journal, where she records the joys and frustrations not just of frontier life, but also of a new marriage to a handsome but distant stranger. As she and Luke make life together on the harsh and beautiful plains, Mattie learns some bitter truths about her husband and the girl he left behind and finds love where she least expects it. Dramatic and suspenseful, this is an unforgettable story of hardship, friendship and survival.

  • Simple and to the point

    Always been fascinated by this time period and the travails encountered crossing the prairies, but the format used to tell the story and the compelling story itself had me totally immersed (sp?) and in tears towards the end. Sandra Dallas almost always writes a good book. Not always.....but most often.

  • True Pioneer story all the way.

    IF you like wagon train/pioneer stories - this one is one of the most realistic you will read. It has several sad parts... but that is just the way of pioneer life. It is written like an actual diary - the private thoughts of Mattie. Great characters and interesting story of determination and perseverance. Very enjoyable.

  • Great book

    Love Sandra Salad.
