She learned to late--on her wedding night--that she had escaped nothing... Deborah Graham"s escape from the ravages of the Civil War to the plains of Texas holds more than the promise of a new beginning. She is marrying a handsome young man who will inherit wealth and influence from his cattle-baron father. But the reverberations of a murderer"s bullet echo far own the corridors of her life and change everything for Deborah. From the plains of Texas to the Indian Territories of Kansas, Deborah finds herself faced with all the beauty, savagery, and challenges of the Old West. And along the way a tiny seed of faith is planted and the characteristics that will become her distinctive mark--strength, independence, honor and faith in a God who is bigger than the land ever noted for its awesome size--will begin to develop.
