This special collection
Loving the Frontiersman’s Faith (formerly titled Courage in the Mountain Wilderness)
Caleb Jackson is on a journey, not just to fetch the Nez Perce chief’s runaway daughter but to find God’s plan for his life. He once thought being a minister was his calling, but failed under scrutiny.
Otskai, the chief’s niece and a widow with a feisty toddler, joins them, stirring something in Caleb. When her son is kidnapped, they must brave the wilderness together, trusting God to forge a new path or risk their pasts tearing them apart.
This Homeward Journey
Rachel Gray hopes to start a new life with her son in the Wyoming mountains, but secrets make her a target for danger.
Seth Grant, determined to protect this widow and her child, guides them to safety. As peril closes in, their growing bond and faith are tested. Can they embrace a future together, or will the past destroy their chance at home?
Loving the Outcast’s Redemption (formerly titled Honor in the Mountain Refuge)
Chogan refuses the violent ways of his Blackfoot tribe, earning their rejection and leaving him alone with painful regrets. Haunted by his part in kidnapping Telípe, a Nez Perce woman he can't forget, he struggles to make amends.
Widowed and expecting her first child, Telípe returns home to give birth. With newborn twins on her hands, her people find a new danger nearby—a massive wildcat threatens her village.
When Chogan offers his help, Telípe must decide whether to trust the man she once feared. As they face peril together, unexpected hope blossoms. But will past hurts and present dangers tear Chogan and Telípe apart—or bind them forever?
Loving the Scout’s Valor (formerly titled Peace in the Mountain Haven)
Watkuese is desperate to return across the Rocky Mountains before winter sets in. Time is running out for her to get her adopted daughter back to the familiar surroundings of the Shoshone village before the grief of her parents’ death causes irreparable damage.
Hugh Charpentier has spent his life watching over his siblings, and now he’s asked to help shepherd a woman and child he barely knows across the mountains. As hard as it is to keep up with a six-year-old in the treacherous Rockies, it’s not nearly as dangerous as risking his heart to a woman and child who may not ever be his.
Loving the Father’s Mercy (formerly titled Calm in the Mountain Storm)
Missionary Elise Lane returns to find the native village she loves destroyed and nearly everyone massacred. The lone survivor—an infant girl—is carried away by Goes Ahead, a grieving brave who discovers his wife among the dead.
Determined to protect his surviving children, he sets out to cross treacherous mountains to reach his family. Reluctantly, he accepts help from Elise and her fellow missionaries, though mistrust runs deep. As winter closes in, dangers mount, forcing Elise and Goes Ahead to rely on faith—and each other.

Just finished the box of books. Each book was filled with adventure, family and faith. Each book has romance, smiles, tears and biblical readings. At the end of each story, there is a Sneak Peek into the next book in the series. I will admit that after reading what was next, I downloaded a couple or more from Kindle Unlimited. If Book 6 and 8 are in the box, why not pick up Book 7 and fill in the storyline. Each book became my favorite! There were Blackfoot tribes, Nez Perce, Shoshone and many villages along the way. One of the best features is the little kids in each storyline. Loved each and every one of them. Thanks for excellent reads.
