In a land of raw winds and merciless sun, Marybeth MacKinder was a quiet, raven-haired young widow traveling westward with her former husband's family and the memories of a loveless marriage. Here she was losing the batle to protect herself and her infant son from the brutish brother-in-law who was trying to claim her as his own. Then Joshua Rivers stood before her offering her a tenderness she had never felt. He was a man of the frontier, a man both tough and gentle, whose very touch gave her a thrill she had never known. As the wagon train pushed across a continent, Marybeth would see new horizons opening up before her and feel a passion-bred crouage to face both danger and a new destiny. But the joy she felt in Joshua's arms would be threatened by savage jealousy--and a bullet...for the journey of her heart had just begun.

This book combines all the elements, a wagon train to Oregon, young widow with a child traveling with her really, really mean loutish in-laws (the men), down trodden mother in law and of course the handsome hero. I really enjoyed this book and have read it several times.

Ms. Bittner tells a great story about love, hate, and revenge. This book is about a woman named Marybeth who travels unwillingly to Oregon with her hated in-laws. On the way she faces friendship, danger, sickness, and true love. A truly great and realistic story! Don't miss it!!
