The Plot:
Bess Parker is only twenty-one years old when she sets out by herself in 1908, leaving the safety of her childhood home for southwestern North Dakota to establish a homestead. And it takes all the strength she can muster to succeed— facing the perils of the vast prairie, making her homestead productive, conquering the dangers of the frontier, flirting with romance, struggling with the emotional needs of her heart and body, and meeting the challenges of life on the prairie. But this unique young woman has a steely determination, and her story is the epitome of courage and grit in a difficult and sometimes cruel time in the history of the west.
Review ***** Rochelle Weber Roses & Thorns Reviews Wrote on Amazon:“ Excellent First Novel About a Strong, Feisty Woman Pioneer. … Bess grabbed me at the beginning and held my attention straight through. I had difficulty putting it down. … Bess is a plucky character— a strong woman who makes her own way in a man’ s world. A true pioneer in more than one sense of the word. I highly recommend Bess.” https:// www. amazon. com / review / R27MMZJNOOUWOV
