About this listen

Despite years on the run, Sophie Neumann is determined to care for two young children. She won't abandon them the way she thinks her older sisters abandoned her. But times are growing desperate, and when she falls in with the wrong crowd and witnesses a crime, she realizes fleeing 1850s New York is her only option.

Disappearing with her two young charges into a group of orphans heading west by train, Sophie hopes to find safety and a happy life. When the train stops in Illinois for the first placement of orphans, Sophie faces the most difficult choice of her life.

Reinhold Weiss has finally purchased his own small farm. With mounting debts, a harvest to bring in, and past scars that haunt him, he's in no position to give his heart away...but can he say no when his long-lost friend shows up on a nearby train pleading for his help?

A superb story, I enjoy the characters and following their lives and appreciated the way the author set the scene and made me feel like I was a part of it . I’m really impressed with the way the author writes. I fully recommend a great read.

Brilliant

The performance was great and I like the male lead's character development. BUT the large age difference between the leads makes the whole romance very uncomfortably predatory. And my gosh, Sophie is just so whiny and selfish! I cannot stand her. She's so hypocritical, stupid as a brick and so utterly selfish that she lost all sympathy from me really early on. Living in her head during the book is always an exercise in extreme patience and trying to not scream the answers to her REALLY REALLY STUPID PROBLEMS. No, Sophie, I don't care that you don't want to see your very loving and kind sisters, who you have NO REASON to be afraid of because they have literally never criticised you in your entire life. My sympathy for you making your "children" homeless again and again because you can't be bothered to even talk to to your sisters, ended at about page 3.

So my advice, don't bother. Just make a better ending in your mind to the whole Sophie problem of the last book like I did.

Uncomfortable and stupid throughout
