Wilderness Trail of Love - Paperback

by Dorothy Wiley (Author)

AMERICAN WRITING AWARDS GOLD LEGACY WINNER
A devoted marriage. A thousand-mile perilous wilderness. A love tested by the frontier.

In 1797, Stephen and Jane Wyllie leave the familiarity of home behind, chasing the promise of a better life in the new state of Kentucky. But the thousand perilous miles between them and their dream will demand every ounce of courage they possess-and threaten the one thing they treasure most: each other.

About the Story
Stephen longs for land-enough to secure a future for his wife and their young daughters. Jane longs for safety, stability, and the man she married before fear and hardship began carving new shadows into his spirit. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey through an untamed American frontier filled with breathtaking beauty, lurking terror, and life-altering choices.

As storms, illness, and ruthless foes close in, Stephen's determination hardens. Jane's resilience deepens. And the wilderness itself becomes a force that could either forge their bond stronger than ever...or break it beyond repair.
Will Stephen's dream cost him the love he's fighting to protect?
