Publisher Description
Certain she can't live without Hamre Bjorklund, the impetuous Sophie Knutson rejects her father's request to postpone her marriage until after graduation and convinces Hamre to elope. But far from her family, Sophie finds that life as a fisherman's bride in Ballard, Washington, is not all she had envisioned. Pregnant and lonely while Hamre is away at sea, she hires on at a fish cannery, only to be fired after fainting on the job. When tragedy strikes, heartbroken Sophie can think only of returning home to Blessing. But will her family welcome her after the way she's hurt them by her defiant behavior? Will she ever open her heart to love again?

"I've enjoyed listening to this series on audio. It is set at the turn of the 20th century when the car, washing machines, etc. are being added to life on the prairie. I like the characters and the situations. I may go back and read the preceding series after I finish these. "

" A; Second in the set I borrowed from a coworker. I identified a bit with Sophie and her dreams of adventure. She was a fun character to explore and the hard working NoDaks still shone through. "

" I love the whole series by Snelling so I was happy to have a continuation in the Bjorklund saga. I'm glad I didn't read the back cover as that gave most of the story away. I love her detailed story telling. As always I'm looking forward to the next read. "

" This will go down as my favorite series. So good. "
— Joanne, 7/24/2010 -
" It took me awhile to get into this one, maybe because it had been so long since I read the first book. Once I got into it I really enjoyed it. I'll have to try to read the next book in this series without such a big gap this time. "
