In 1821, when circumstances make it impossible for her to remain in New Orleans, Dorritt and her family head west to join Stephen Austin's settlement and recoup their fortune in Texas.
Quinn is a man of the frontier who has made a name for himself as a peerless scout. But as he and Dorritt's party begin a grueling trek across untamed Texas, the success of their journey is in grave doubt. Mexico has broken with the Spanish Crown, and armies from both countries—plus marauding Comanches—roam the pine forests and prairies. And one of the party is plotting destruction.
Now, with their lives joined in a virgin land fraught with peril, can Dorritt and Quinn put all their trust in God and receive the desires of their hearts?

My Review: Dorritt is a young woman living with her step-father who has gambled the family money away. He takes the family to Texas from Louisiana because the land is free, and he believes he will profit there. He has no idea what is in store for him and he refuses to listen to Dorritt in fact he treats her horribly. The scout that is paid to guide them, Quinn has been cheated by Dorritt's step-father, and he isn't happy with how Dorritt is treated at all. Dorritt and Quinn find themselves in many perilous situations. They also find themselves attracted to each other. Quinn isn't used to a woman who is so independent and he doesn't quite know how to handle that, and yet he is very attracted to her. Dorritt, on the other hand has been treated so badly by her step-father that she wants to be married and have a family, she just doesn't know if she can trust a man. I give this book a lighthouse and shine a light on it for lighting a path to God.
