Looking in the newspaper to see what might be available -- anywhere -- she spots an ad for both a schoolteacher in California and a mail order bride wanted by the same store owner who placed the ad. Chancing it, she writes to him and then deciding to risk it all she packs up her things and heads out west on a wagon train. She is suddenly wrenched away from the path that God has chosen for her when, one evening, her life takes a violent U-turn. Finding Home With The Lord's Help, is a love story about two families traveling West along the Oregon Trail--both have lost their matriarchs and one has lost their faith on God. One young woman looks across at the other family--full of love and faith--then up to her gruff father who has lost his. It's through faith and unselfishness that they are able to face their daily challenges both on the trail, and off it, and find love in all things.Belinda's Beloved Family Bible, is a story about a young Irish heritage woman traveling across the Oregon Trail and headed West, with her single parent father. Her mother had died giving birth to her and the treasured family bible held her only memories. On a rugged river crossing the bible is lost and Belinda doesn't notice until later, when her father--who's the wagon master--is unable to stop. Distraught, Belinda jumps off the wagon and runs towards the river and back into unknown territory.
