Destiny's Dreamers #1
Gone West
Destiny's Book One
They set out to change their world through the power of words, and were themselves forever changed.
Johnny and Maggie Stuart, booksellers and purveyors of wisdom par excellence, are vibrantly young and full of faith as they begin their two-thousand-mile journey west to dispense the Word and their own special brand of love in the untamed wilderness.
Ever the dreamer, Johnny must learn to forsake his books for reality as they encounter rain-swollen rivers, sudden tragedy, and the fierce Native Americans of the Plains.
But it is Maggie of the fire-red hair and the nurturing spirit who must teach him the most important lesson of all-that the language of love is written on the heart.

What?
Why did you end the book in the middle? Would have been nice to see what happened to the precher and the rest of the journey. Not impressed just wasted days reading a book with no ending.
