My Review
Train to Laramie is a well-written western story with exciting and well-developed characters that bring the western flavor to life. The storyline varies from the actions of violent men to townspeople just trying to scrape a living to survive.
The story is suspenseful, filled with a sense of faith, and fraught with uncertain times. The main characters have to rely on their faith in God and lots of courage to see them through. Can Tess and Brett, the log cutter who saved her find true happiness in spite of their many struggles? Read this inspirational and inspiring story to find out. Highly recommended.
I received a complimentary copy and voluntarily choose to review it.

More from Andrew
The American West has always fascinated me with ruggedly beautiful landscapes and the indomitable spirit of the pioneers. When building the Transcontinental Railroad, nothing could stop the people from their goal. This innovation and tenacity has shaped our soul, our character as a nation. This deep sense of perseverance encourages me through the tough times we face today.
Dedication
To our God and Creator, able to transform lives and redirect paths. Thank you, Savior.
