Round the Bend

Romance and Discovery along the Oregon Trail. Independence Missouri, seventeen year old Amy Stevens shares her excitement at the journey with her best friend-- only to be disappointed in his less than enthusiastic reaction. His sudden kiss angers her. He is ruining everything. Matthew Kane shares none of her illusions as to what lies ahead. He also has seen how the train's scout, Adam Stone has looked at her. Matt has lived a hard life, worked hard to earn enough for the supplies to go west. A story of the trek west told through two families-- the Stevens and the Kanes-families as different as light and dark. It is a story of the purest of love and the most driven of hate with a few surprises, humor, and enchanting characters. The road ahead will test them all in faith, hope and courage. If you like pioneer brides, reluctant heroes, crusty secondary characters and feeling good, you will love Rain Trueax's Oregon Pioneer Romances. Start your adventure with 'Round The Bend'.
