Fierce Dreams: Historical Women's Fiction Saga Large Print (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781949153576)

Her heart broken, her future stolen-the Oregon Trail offers Nora Cole not just a path west, but a journey to her true self.

Independence, Missouri, 1850: When Jimmy Rayburn-the boy Nora has loved since childhood-proposes to her best friend instead, her carefully planned future shatters in an instant. Desperate for a fresh start, Nora joins her family on the treacherous two-thousand-mile journey to Oregon Territory.

Determined to rebuild her dreams on the frontier, Nora throws herself into the romance of adventure. But the trail quickly teaches harsh lessons in survival as thunderstorms rage, provisions dwindle, and danger lurks at every river crossing. Always the caretaker, Nora must now learn her most difficult lesson: sometimes you must put yourself first to truly help others.

When a fellow traveler catches her eye, Nora finds herself drawn to him despite her wounded heart. But misunderstandings and trail hardships threaten their connection before it can truly begin.

As the endless prairie tests her resilience, Nora discovers strengths she never knew she possessed and dreams bigger than anything she could have imagined back home.

In the vast wilderness of the Oregon Trail, will Nora finally find her voice, her purpose-and perhaps a love worthy of her generous heart?

All the books in the Courage on the Oregon Trail series take place within the same wagon company's trip west and run concurrently. They can be read in any order.
