Caroline Pierce O'Leary expects to work hard to earn her passage to the Oregon Country. She doesn't expect to find that the wagon train scout is a man with whom she shares a troubled past. Though Caroline is a Christian now, thanks to her late husband, she finds forgiving Michael to be the hardest part of her journey, harder even than the Trail. Michael Moriarty thought he'd left his past behind in "green and hurting Ireland." Seeing Caroline on his wagon train, brings his past to the forefront. With a price on his head, he doesn't want her to get hurt, but he can't deny what they were...and could still be. Michael once betrayed Caroline in the worst possible way. Can she trust him to get her across the Oregon Trail? Can he trust himself to accept her forgiveness and God’s?
This was a very good book and I enjoyed it very much. It was easy connecting with all the characters and also identifying with their faith struggles. All of the references to the Bible and what God wants for all of us is right on the mark. It is an interesting look at that time in our nation's history. Historical fiction has always been one of my favorites and "Westward Hope" delivered on all counts. I plan to read more by this author. Patricia - PBG Booklover
I have to admit, I had a hard time getting into this book at the beginning. There were so many characters introduced that I had to sort them out as I kept reading. The more I read the more I enjoyed reading it. There were unexpected twists, which I didn't see coming, and it made for a better read. I did agree to review this book and downloaded the book at no cost.
Westward Hope us a story of Hope, where lonely people struggle towards the West, where they hope to find a new living. They arrive at the East after a long trail full of efforts, but the most of all is the struggle to forgive and to be forgiven. When they learn about forgiveness, there is real Hope. Thank you for the possibility to read a Christian book. I wish you the presence of our God. Kind regards, Kristie - PBG Booklover
