A powerful journey of resilience and romance set against the stunning Rocky Mountains

Samantha Aikens’s saga continues from where “Oh, Them Days on Red Hoss Mountain” leaves off in this post-trial tale as she and James Lefebvre travel back to Gold Hill. When the train starts a wildfire that takes aim at the tiny mining town, lives are forever changed. Samantha’s resilience is put to the test as she faces death, injuries, and loss. The storyline demonstrates aspects of frontier life and pioneer communities uniting in loyalty to help each other during a disaster. This fast-paced novel depicts rugged historical settings and deep personal growth as James and Samantha meet life’s challenges in a gripping Western romance. Based on the poem, “Casey’s Table D’Hote” by Eugene Field, “When The Skies Wuz Fair and Blue” is an emotionally charged and beautifully written story with a character-driven narrative set against the Colorado Rocky Mountains, an absolute must-read for fans of historical fiction.
