ABOUT THE BOOK
Two Generations. One destiny.
In 1863, Matthew Merrick is desperate to prove to the world that he isn’t a mistake. Sent to the untamed Minnesota wilderness to oversee a pivotal land treaty, he finds his resolve tested—and his heart captured—by the daughter of an Ojibwe chief. But when his ambitions clash with those of Jacob Bailey, a fierce rival determined to shape his own fate, both men are drawn into a web of choices that will echo for decades...
Half a century later in 1917, the world is at war, but for stunt pilot Cade Bailey, the true battle is at home. Haunted by the mistakes of his past, he returns to northern Minnesota—not just to save his family’s struggling farm, but to find redemption in the wilderness he loves. Heiress Emma Merrick has wealth and privilege—but the freedom she longs for remains out of reach. Bound by family secrets and unyielding expectations, she jeopardizes everything to be a Red Cross nurse on the homefront, and dreams of learning to fly to bring aid to her patients.
When Cade’s reckless courage collides with Emma’s fierce determination, neither will be the same. But as their families’ secrets unravel, and the choices of their ancestors return to haunt them, they will be swept into a whirlwind of consequences that neither can escape, risking everything to chart their own course.

REVIEW
This book was so surprising. The depth of connection between the stories was so well done! The two time periods worked so well, and unlike many stories, they were connected and not two completely different stories. This book was a great reminder that each and every person has their own story and their own journey and God never gives up on anyone. This book was fantastic! One of her best!
