Summary
New York Times best-selling author Francine Rivers returns to the California frontier in this sweeping, romantic tale of a displaced New England suffragette, a former Union soldier disinherited by his Southern family, and the town they join forces to save.
1875. When Kathryn Walsh arrives in tiny Calvada, a mining town nestled in the Sierra Nevadas, falling in love is the farthest thing from her mind. Banished from Boston by her wealthy stepfather, she has come to claim an inheritance from the uncle she never knew: a defunct newspaper office on a main street overflowing with brothels and saloons, and a seemingly worthless mine. Moved by the oppression of the local miners and their families, Kathryn decides to relaunch her uncle’s newspaper - and then finds herself in the middle of a maelstrom, pitted against Calvada’s most powerful men. But Kathryn intends to continue to say - and publish - whatever she pleases, especially when she knows she’s right.
Matthias Beck, owner of a local saloon and hotel, has a special interest in the new lady in town. He instantly recognizes C. T. Walsh’s same tenacity in the beautiful and outspoken redhead - and knows all too well how dangerous that family trait can be. While Kathryn may be right about Calvada’s problems, her righteousness could also get her killed. But when the handsome hotelier keeps finding himself on the same side of the issues as the opinionated Miss Walsh, Matthias’s restless search for purpose becomes all about answering the call of his heart. Everyone may be looking to strike it rich in this lawless boomtown, but it’s a love more precious than gold that will ultimately save them all.

Fantastic
I felt like I was part of the town. It was a story of faith, hope, love , Grace and strength. The narrator Ms. Forbes did a phenomenal job.

Good Story, encouraging
I enjoyed the story. I didn't enjoy the narration, I found her voice annoying. The story moves at a decent pace and you are able to get to know all the characters. Definitely worth a listen.

A gentle, well narrated tale.
This was fairly predictable and certainly not anywhere near as good as other books I've read of Francine Rivers. That said it's well narrated and there's enough to the storytelling / plot to keep you listening to the end.

Love Francine Rivers books, her storylines draw you in and you become quite attached to the characters. The narration was good in this book. Wish I could listen to it for the first time again.

Perfect balance of faith building fiction
This book is just the boost I needed. Easy to listen to.
Great tone and volume of voice.
Easy to pick up the character nuances so essential to climb into the story. It had enough challenges and blessings in life for faith building and stimulus throughout. I loved Kate’s spicy character and feisty determination with a few raw, vulnerable edges to blend beautifully for a modern life too - truly transformational. I felt compelled to offer this book to my daughter. A new believer in God, I sensed it would be a good uplifting, faith building read for her fledging journey.
