Marian and the Trailblazer

di Abby Whitehead (Autore)

Styli-books, 2026

She has hidden sixty-three dollars in a flour tin, a few coins at a time, for two years. Marian Whitlock keeps a Boston household running without a sound. Behind a locked door, her husband is a different man, and the one policeman she told would not write her report. So she buys a widow's papers on Court Street, answers a rancher's advertisement for a housekeeper on the Boise River, and takes a place in a wagon company bound for Oregon. Reid Mackenzie never raises his voice. The company hired him as pilot only because the first guide drowned, and half the wagons resent his mother's Shoshone blood. He stays six feet away from Marian, keeps his hands where she can see them, and asks before he touches her. Over sixteen hundred miles of hail, flooded rivers and mountain fever, she learns what it is to be asked. The company learns what it costs to turn on the man who asks. And when her husband catches up at the Snake River, one crossing will decide everything. A slow-burn historical romance about trust, courage, and the man who waits for the woman to say "when."
