"You can pick it up by the shovelful!" Such were the promises that brought a wide sweep of humanity streaming across the Western trails. But there were other motivations too escape from the past, the pull of new adventure, or even the call of God to minister. Some would yield their lives, most would reshape their vision, and a few hardy, determined ones would make their dreams come true.
Set against the rigors of life in the West, bestselling author Marian Wells begins the story of Amy Randolph, the daughter of a frontier preacher.

On the threshold of womanhood, she finds that life in the lonely Colorado mining town holds realities which challenge the strength of her most basic values. Or were they really hers?
