Montana Territory, 1864: Jack Wade had nothing to lose when he left the wagon train that carried his sister Callie westward. Heartbroken over losing their sister Rose and wanted by the law, Jack heads to the only place for wild souls like himself: the rough-and-tumble gambling town of Virginia City. What he finds there outshines any prize won at the gaming tables -- he discovers Lillie, the down-to-earth card dealer who could be the love of his life. But just as Jack makes a fresh start, a murderous enemy crosses his path -- an explosive twist of fate that forces Jack to leave Lillie and sends him on the run once again. Out on the trail, wounded and half-starved, Jack is rescued by Raven, a beautiful Blackfoot woman, and with her tribe he finds the peace he seeks.

Book Description
The Savage family was destined to turn the pages of history and write their own heritage—this is their story. With faith in God and unwavering courage, they immigrated to America, crossing the untried frontiers in the early 1800’s to forge a new life. Many hardships challenged their faith in the Almighty to sustain them. Breaching the doors of hardships, they aspired to bridge its chasms leaving the outcome to the will of God. The people of this great era became the forefathers of a country untraveled, where men were free to dream and carry them out. The building of this grand nation was a siege for glory that eluded many, yet they persevered with a renewed hope to build a nation of their own liking and with their own hands. Coleen Palmer, a fire-haired beauty from Ireland, whose love for a gentle Irishman, Erick Savage, led her to willingly abandon her wealthy, affluent heritage, choosing rather to be a part of the future and struggles of a budding nation—where Only the Valiant prevailed.

Book Description
After years of being apart, cousins Carolyn and Patty are eager to catch up with each other at a relative's wedding. They bring the letters they exchanged during World War II--when they were children--as a way to reminisce. As the women read through the letters, they are transported back to the American home front. When they begin writing letters, Carolyn has just moved from Nebraska to Oregon, and the two girls desperately miss each other. But their communication is soon overshadowed by the events of December 7, 1941, when Pearl Harbor is bombed. The tone of the letters changes as the girls grow preoccupied with the war. Patty tells Carolyn about how their Japanese American friends move to Canada to avoid being put into camps, while Carolyn expresses her relief that her father cannot enlist in the navy due to a blind eye. Whether they write about gas rationing and blackout regulations or saving money to buy war stamps, Carolyn and Patty reveal the war's impact on their lives. But as the two discuss the contents of the letters at their reunion, they realize just how much the war years shaped who they are as adults. Artfully switching between the past and the present, Letters from the Home Front is a charming novel of America during World War II.
