I recommend this book and story. The story starts with a woman going to be a housekeeper. What will happen to her ? Will she fit in with the family? You must read this book.
This book tells about brutal winter storms, A woman named Hope that is looking for a place to belong. Fights over land boundaries, murders and attempted murders. This book is hard to put down.
Certainly kept me reading. I had an inkling the former fiancé would show up. Almost dying of hypothermia was terribly real. It took Wade almost too long to get out from under his sadness of the past. But true love 💕 finally won!
