This is a highly personal story of Joy and her son, Kevin. He was a
decorated soldier serving three tours overseas and finally came

a collapse and coma left him almost completely disabled. This is her

searching those memories that will sustain them both in this new
world of truth and faith.

Lauraine Snelling
This is a spin-off novel of the original Red River of the North series
and follows the next generation of that strong Bjorklund family of
Norwegian settlers in the Dakota Territory. The dream of

their own? Life on the prairie in the late 1800s can be full of
adventure and tough life lessons.
