About this ebook

In 1848, women can expect a few bumps along the Oregon Trail. Corinne Temple, age seventeen, has a few ridiculous challenges to face outside the river crossings, snakes, Indians, accidental gunshots and finding enough privacy to be clean along the grimy trail. When Corinne’s marriage of convenience gets less convenient she turns to some new friends in the wagon train who help her see the hope for the future. They teach her to take the time to dance and celebrate the small victories, to have faith and determination through the hardest things a person can face. Corinne’s journey takes her from the cobblestone streets of fashionable Boston to the rugged mountains of the west, across rivers and deserts, from sea to shining sea. A faithful heart gets this young woman through the hardest days on the trail, her skills and resolve show her and others how a woman can rise from circumstances and survive. Join her as she discovers her own strength and resilience in...Finding Her Way

I am a writer, singer, wife and mother. I live in SW lower Michigan near the banks of brandywine creek.I adore writing historical and contemporary stories, facing the challenges that life throws at you with characters that are relate-able.I love finding humor in the ridiculous things that are in the everyday comings and goings of life.For me a good book is when you get to step into the character's shoes and join them on their journey. So climb aboard, lets share the adventure!

    The narrative made the characters feel distant and there were many cases of words that sound the same but have different meanings where the wrong word was used (for example: sewn/sown) which marred my enjoyment. It's a good reminder that women didn't always have the freedoms they do today. Corinne had to get married in order to be able to travel to her father.Note: I saw a note on another site that said this was a professionally edited re-release of a work previously published under the title "Seeing the Elephant". Despite this claim, grammatical errors still exist in this work as of 2018.
