Emma's brother is seeing her off to Nalgitas to marry a man she has never met. And Emma seems like a lost soul to Addie-someone who needs Addie's savvy and wary eye. It isn't often that Addie is drawn to anyone as a friend, but Emma seems different somehow.

Horrible ending
- By lisa campbell on 04-24-23
By: Sandra Dallas
Publisher's summary
From the best-selling author of A Quilt for Christmas comes the irrepressible story of one woman's quest to find love without losing herself in the American West.
Ellen is putting the finishing touches on her granddaughter June's wedding quilt - made from scraps of old dresses, both remembered and forgotten - when June breaks off her engagement and seeks sanctuary at her grandparents' ranch. June's fiance is set to go off to fight in Korea as soon as they're married, but the young bride doesn't think she can go through with it.
Ellen has spent the last 50 years on this ranch with her beloved husband, Ben. Theirs has been a wonderful life, the best Ellen could imagine; yet she cannot accept the fate that is looming all too close. Ben's failing memory and her poor health have made selling their ranch and moving into town an inevitability.
Ellen wants just one more winter in front of the fireplace Ben built, the two of them warm under the quilts she's stitched, before they say good-bye. But first, June's uncertain heart needs tending. With the rose-colored New Mexico desert as backdrop, Ellen tells June the story of Nell, a Kansas-born spitfire who ran away from three different weddings before marrying the love of her life. It's a tale filled with excitement, heartbreak, disappointment, self-discovery, and hard-earned life lessons that taught her how a woman can learn to love without giving up who she is and who she wants to become. Ultimately, the story of Nell reveals a twist with tremendous significance not only for June as she decides her fate but also for Ellen as she embraces hers.

In 1920, in small-town America, the ubiquitous dry goods store was usually owned by Jews and often referred to as "the Jew store". That's how Stella Suberman's father's store, Bronson's Low-Priced Store, in Concordia, Tennessee, was known locally. The Bronsons were the first Jews to ever live in that tiny town of one main street, one bank, one drugstore, one picture show, one feed and seed, one hardware, one barber shop, one beauty parlor, one blacksmith, and many Christian churches.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 120
Colorado, 1918. World War I is raging overseas, but it’s the home front battling for survival. With the Spanish Flu rampant, Denver’s schools are converted into hospitals, churches and funeral homes are closed, and nightly horse-drawn wagons collect corpses left in the street. Sisters Helen and Lutie have moved to Denver from Ohio after their parents’ death. Helen, a nurse, and Lutie, a carefree advertising designer at Neusteter’s department store, share a small, neat house and each finds a local beau—for Helen a doctor, for Lutie a young student who soon enlists.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 72
In 1844, two years before the Donner Party, the Stevens-Murphy company left Missouri to be the first wagons into California through the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Mostly Irish Catholics, the party sought religious freedom and education in the mission-dominated land and enjoyed a safe journey - until October, when a heavy snowstorm forced difficult decisions. The first of many for young Mary Sullivan, newlywed Sarah Montgomery, the widow Ellen Murphy, and her pregnant sister-in-law Maolisa.

Letitia holds nothing more dear than the papers that prove she is no longer a slave. They may not cause white folks to treat her like a human being, but at least they show she is free. She trusts in those words she cannot read - as she is beginning to trust in Davey Carson, an Irish immigrant cattleman who wants her to come west with him.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 457
During World War II, a family finds life turned upside-down when the government opens a Japanese internment camp in their small Colorado town. After a young girl is murdered, all eyes turn on the newcomers. Rennie has just turned thirteen and until this time, life has pretty much been predictable and fair. But the winds of change are coming, and with them, a shift in her perspective and a discovery of secrets that can destroy even the most sacred things. Part thriller, part historical novel, Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas is a riveting exploration of the darkest—and best—parts of the human heart.

A true romance expertly written.
This was my first Sandra Dallas novel. And I intend to read more. As an author myself, I admire her expertise with the mechanics and creativity.
The narration fit the story perfectly.

Not her best book.
The plot was predictable. Part of the storyline was very similar to another of her books. The audiobook may have been more enjoyable with a different narrator. An OK but not great book that I would not recommend.

Sweet story.
Performance was a little drawn out. I like Diary of Mattie Spencer best though. Liked the quilt part of the story.

Terrible narrator!
Choppy, sentences. Ten minutes in. Can't get through the first chapter. I love Sanda. Dallas. So sorry. I can't listen.
