From one end of the country to the other, they chase the elusive rainbow of success and fame. Their search for fulfillment and meaning in life nearly costs them their love, if not their very lives.

Description

The stagecoach driver's shout sent a chill down Holly Lambeth's spine. What an ominous sound! Was Riverbend, Oregon, to be the end of the line for her? She had come west to escape the swirling gossip about her broken engagement. She had come to escape the humiliation of being jilted. She had come here to find a welcome new life, but her cousin's chilly reception tells her she has made a terrible mistake. Here in Riverbend, two thousand miles from Kentucky, in a town barely more than a mining camp, Holly faces the fact that she is unwanted and unwelcome. Knowing this unhappy truth, Holly reaches another conclusion. Only she can change her situation. Both the editor of the local newspaper, as well as the town's doctor, are attracted to the pretty newcomer. But Holly has more than romance on her mind. An unforeseen opportunity presents a challenge and brings Holly to a decision that will not only change her, but alter her own vision of her future. Bestselling author Jane Peart takes readers to the Old West in the Westward Dreams Series with five novels of excitement, adventure, and romance. From mining camps to California vineyards, you'll meet women who must find a new life for themselves in a difficult, sometimes hostile environment. But with persistence, principle, and a steadfast faith, they not only survive, they thrive.
