9 Stories of Finding Shelter and Love in a Wintry Frontier
A Pioneer Christmas Collection |
Received a copy of A Pioneer Christmas Collection recently
and discovered several writer friends contributions are included. Of special
note, this is Shannon McNear's debut for book publishing with her story,
"Defending Truth." Have known Shannon for years as a faithful fan of
our own Bly books.
What a beautiful cover and impressive company of writers:
Lauraine Snelling, Margaret Brownley, Kathleen Fuller, Marcia Gruver, Cynthia
Hickey, Vickie McDonough, Michelle Ule, and Anna Urquhart.
Here's some blurbs on a couple of the 9 different stories:
Defending Truth by Shannon McNear
Left to care for her siblings at their mountain farm while
her father fights the British in the East, Truth Bledsoe tries to remain brave
when she finds an emaciated Tory hiding in a cave. Can Micah Elliot convince
her that his political leanings have changed and that he can be trusted when
her family is put in serious danger?

The Cowboy's Angel by Lauraine Snelling
Jeremiah Jenson, a cowboy on his way to the northern plains
to find work, encounters a dying man in the Dakota snow. Belle Stedman's
husband has been gone for six weeks, and she has just given birth to her second
