Three Complete Books in the Westward Wanderers Trilogy

Book 1: Where He Leads
Compared to an arranged marriage to the odious Bernard Regent, a prairie schooner on the Oregon Trail doesn't seem like such a bad trade to Amethyst Kent.

When desperate Martha Davis reveals her need for a mother's helper on the trail, Ami decides to up and leave the pampered life she's always known for a land of freedom. But trail life is hardly a tea party, and Ami must draw from the deepest wells of her faith to survive. With the sunset always before her, and Shiloh Talon, a handsome trail scout, guiding the way, she might just make it through.

Book 2: The Dawn Wakers

The last four months have been tough for Ellie, traveling the Oregon trail with her mother and four siblings. Though scarlet fever left her with a weakened heart, she's pushed ahead with determination.

Thaddeus dreams of becoming a pastor, though his affluent family expects him to follow in his banker father's footsteps.

Thaddeus and Ellie meet every morning on the trail to sing hymns and pray. Soon they realize they want to be together forever. But the trail is harsh, and a mysterious drifter may threaten their love. Can their faith see them through to God's perfect plan?

Book 3: Season of Flight

Two sisters experience the adventure of a lifetime...

Fern longs to see the ocean, so she's asked to accompany a wagon load of bees to Emerald City, Oregon, she jumps at the chance.

Iris, Fern's sister, has always been content to stay at home. But a vision from God compels her to find her sister . . . alone.

What will the Founder sisters find waiting for them in the coastal town? Perhaps true love . . . or danger beyond their wildest imaginations. Their sisterly bond will be challenged in ways they never dreamed . . . can they pass the test?

These were easy reading, sweet stories. To me they seemed to drag a bit and I skipped pages and did not feel I missed anything. It could have used better proof reading but the errors were not terribly annoying or distracting. Sometimes they were amusing. People "ascended" down the stairs, more than once. At first I thought it was a typo but after the second time I figured Angela does not know the correct usage of ascending. The good people were universally beautiful, and the evil were all ugly. There is a market for books like this and if you are in that group, you will probably enjoy this.

All the books were good. I liked how the author, developed her characters; related to god and were all great believers in Christ.
The author explained in detail the makeup of each character; their imperfections and how they managed to cope with their unique obstacles.
There were many misspellings but the reading was entertaining and uplifting.
The author did a great job in the thorough discription of the beauty of nature and how it soothes our soul. All the stories were well composed and delightful.

Great Stories, But...

These stories were great! But there were some glaring typos and a few inconsistencies to deal with. They are the sole reason I took off a star. Otherwise, I enjoyed each of the books. The characters were well crafted. The plots were interesting. It was easy for me to really get into the story.
If you enjoy inspirational, historical romance, then you might want to try this.

The best trilogy I've ever read!

I really enjoyed all the characters in each book. Characters were described in detail and their personalities came to life in the trilogy. Every book was a surprise I wasn't expecting. Each story was hard to put down. Ms. Castillo is a great author.

Sweet story

Loved all of the characters and the weaving in and out of the story. Different people who were made for each other. I bet Granny was a character in her younger days. Loved the ending.

Set of 3 books - long read

Historically correct. Interesting characters. Good plots. Took me awhile to read due to the season - yard work, planting and Little League games.
