Publisher's summary

So much has been accomplished. Lillian Walsh has stepped out courageously beyond what she'd ever dreamed of being able to achieve. Two years ago, she was an only child, living in a big house with her adoptive parents. Now, she shares the large home with her newly rediscovered sister, Grace, and the orphaned children to whom Grace has devoted her life.

But then the letter arrives - an official complaint revoking the sisters' permission to manage their little children's home. An untimely winter trip across the prairie is necessary to defend their reputation and to repent from their well-intentioned lie. And Walter, who was once merely Lillian's childhood friend, is now her staunch support, transporting them all and standing beside them in their present trial. However, another wave is coming.

More children are being sent, escorted by an unlikely advocate, a British sailor who once ran away from home. Ebenezer Waldin's scarred heart softens to the children's plight - even to the point of breaking rules. Will there be consequences? And will there be a loving place for all of them once they arrive in the West?

I loved this book so much!!! The narrator made the book sound depressing though. I can’t wait for the next book! Jannette okie is one of the best authors out there, you really can’t get any better than her!!!

Cindy Harper

The narrator did great and was very good at portraying the characters.Could have been better on the story line compared to the Nanette Ole West series.

Sustaining Faith.

I was completely involved with this story and definitely wanted to go on to the Book 2 right away as the ending needed some explanations. Recommend this series.

Captivating storyline

What an exciting, thrilling, and heart tugging story. It made my 3 hour drive fly by and then held my attention so much I had to listen in between my free time. It kept me coming back until the wee hours of the morning. Can't wait to purchase the next one in the series.

A beautiful series

Well read and engrossing, this series by Janette Oke tells the story of children sent to Canada by the British government. For the complete though terrible truth of this I recommend Oranges and Sunshine by Margaret Humphreys. This series by Janette Oke is fictional but tells the story of some who truly fight for the children’s well-being. God willing there were some of these as well. I pray so. An enjoyable listen.

Characters you will love

I absolutely love this series. Each story holds me in suspense waiting to find out if things are gonna work out for the best for each character. I appreciate each characters development, that they are displaying characteristics which I appreciate in people. Gentleness, humility, hard-working, integrity. I love these stories and the characters!

This book caught my attention from the beginning and I couldn't stop listening throughout. I hope there will be a follow up book very soon.
