    About this audiobook

    When a disastrous decision by the trainmaster forces Jesselynn Highwood and her companions to separate from the wagon train, she races back to Fort Laramie to find a guide to take them to Oregon. But the guide has a far different plan, and following her heart, Jesselynn agrees to join him, her ragtag band in tow.

    Back east, Louisa Highwood and her brother Zachary are captured by Union soldiers for smuggling medical supplies into Richmond. Can Louisa find a way to obtain her brother's freedom before it's too late?

    The future of the Highwood family-and that of their beloved Twin Oaks-hangs in the balance. Will the war's end bring them together again?

      The series was ok but when on too long it started to get boring I had to skip over so many pages to get to the last two chapters the second and third books I would give 2 stars they talk more than actually doing anything exciting the first book is the winner Jesselyn,Meshach and his wife are some hardy characters 4 stars for that the narrator did a fairy good job but Wolf and some of the southern voices make me laugh all in all the series was too long and dull
