Reviews The mystery, adventure, and danger of life in Utah in the 1860s is beautifully described...an authentic, emotional story of one woman's fight for survival in an unforgiving landscape. I couldn't put Lizzi Tremayne's book down. -Leeanna Morgan, USA Today bestselling author . vivid, light and fast-paced...it will appeal in particular to anyone interested in American...history, and in general to those looking for a ripping good read. I'm looking forward to reading The Hills of Gold Unchanging, the next volume in the Aleksandra and Xavier saga. -Deborah Challinor, number one bestselling author and historian An impressive debut from a New Zealand (ex-American) author...a romance, a western, and an adventure story, all rolled up into a compelling read...I devoured this one and am hungry for more. -Booksellers New Zealand From the Author I'd written non-fiction for years as an equine veterinarian, mostly articles for veterinary journals and horse magazines, but eventually, I was given the opportunity to put pen to paper and write as I'd only done as a teenager in the redwoods of California! I love writing. This series is now in my blood and I've got the bit in my teeth! I hope you love my characters and their horses as much as I do. I've put my understanding of horses, veterinary medicine, history, things that happen between people, and my heart into my stories. I hope they give you pleasure. Looking forward to hearing from you!
