A bold heart, a courage born of hardship, and a fight for survival on the wild Kansas frontier.
From Wall Street Journal and Amazon bestselling author Donna Foley Mabry comes the epic, unforgettable first book in The Manhattan Stories series-a rich, sweeping historical saga of resilience, romance, and new beginnings.
Life in post-Civil War America isn't easy for a young woman alone, but Jessica is no ordinary heroine. Leaving behind the comfort of everything she's ever known, she sets out for the untamed frontier of Manhattan, Kansas, determined to build a life of independence and purpose on her own terms.
Facing harsh prairie winters, unexpected betrayals, and the raw realities of frontier life, Jessica discovers that building a home requires more than grit-it takes a leap of faith. Along the way, complex friendships, deep family bonds, and an unexpected love test the limits of her heart and strength.
