For fans of Paulette Jiles and Marisa de los Santos Winner of the
Sarton Women's Book Award and the Western Writers of America Spur
Award Annie Rushton leaves behind an unsettling past to join her
brother on his Montana homestead and make a determined fresh start.
There, sparks fly when she tangles with Adam Fielding, a visionary
businessman-farmer determined to make his own way and answer to no
one. Neither is looking for a partner, but they give in to their
undeniable chemistry. Annie and Adam's marriage brims with
astounding success and unanticipated passion, but their dream of
having a child eludes them as a mysterious illness of mind and body
plagues Annie's pregnancies. Amidst deepening economic adversity,
natural disaster, and the onset of world war, their personal
struggles collide with the societal mores of the day. Annie's
shattering periods of black depression and violent outbursts exact
a terrible price. The life the Fieldings have forged begins to
unravel, and the only path ahead leads to unthinkable loss. Based
on true events, this sweeping novel weaves a century-old story,
timeless in its telling of love, heartbreak, healing, and
redemption embodied in one woman's tenacious quest for control over
her own destiny in the face of devastating misfortune and social
injustice.
