Summer of Promise

Though she had planned to spend the summer in Vermont, Abigail Hardingcannot dismiss her concerns over her older sister. Charlotte’s letters have beenuncharacteristically melancholy, and her claims that nothing is wrong ring

false, so Abigail heads west to Fort Laramie, Wyoming. When her stagecoachis attacked, Wyoming promises to be anything but boring. Luckily, the heroicsof another passenger, Lieutenant Ethan Bowles, save the day.

Abigail plans to marry when she returns to Vermont, just as soon as sheattends to her sister. As the summer passes, she finds herself drawn to thisrugged land and to a certain soldier determined to persuade her to stay. When

summer ends, will she go back East, or will she find her heart’s true home?
