The only hope to keep her newborn baby alive is to reach the safety of her Indian people… This mountain man is the last person she should trust to get her there.As a half-Indian raised among her Peigan tribe, Moriah Clark knows better than to trust white people. The tragedy that resulted in her birth is proof enough. But when her trusted grandfather marries her to a white man, she has no choice … to a white man, she has no choice but to obey and hope this new life isn’t her downfall. Her white husband turns out to be a decent sort, but his unexpected death left her to birth a newborn baby among hostile mountain men. She wants nothing more than to retreat to the safe haven of her tribal upbringing. When a mysterious frontiersman arrives on her doorstep seeking her deceased husband, his offer to escort her and the babe to her people seems like the opportunity she’s been praying to find. But can she trust him?
Samuel Grant has been sent to retrieve Henry Clark for his sister’s wedding, but the sight that greets him at the little cabin in the woods is not what he expected. Not only has the man died, but Henry’s wife is fighting off an aggressive gang of men at gunpoint—while trying to conceal a newborn. He can’t leave the pair unattended, so helping her travel into the mountain country to reach her family seems like the only option. If he can win her trust, that is.
Such a grueling journey with a three-week-old baby will be risky, but the challenges that arise test them far more than either expected. When a devastating surprise increases the danger ten-fold, Moriah focuses all her efforts on keeping her newborn daughter alive. Maybe that’s why she doesn’t realize how much of her heart belongs to the mountain man—until it’s too late.

This Daring Journey
When I first read the synopsis of this story, it caught my attention as something I thought I would enjoy reading and thought I would give it a try. I absolutely loved this book! It had my attention from the very first page and I just kept turning page after page not wanting to put it down till the very end!
Half-Indian, Moriah Clark has lost her husband who is a white man, and she is now stuck in their cabin with just herself and her newborn baby, with mountain men attempting to take her home from her every day. Moriah knows she can’t trust anyone, that is until Samuel Grant shows up, a white man claiming to know her husband’s sister. Samuel Grant offers to take Moriah back to her people, but neither have any idea where all this journey will lead them to them in the end. This journey all but costs them their lives as they treck through dangerous mountains, valley’s, and forest, fighting the elements, wild animals, and illness, but they are determined by the help of God to make it to safety alive.
This story is the 6th book in the series Heart of the Mountains by Misty Beller, but if can definitely be read as a stand alone book. I for sure will be going back and reading the other books in this series after being so caught up in this book! If you are looking for your next good book to read, this is it! I give it 5 stars all the way!
I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit, but was not required to give a positive review. This is my honest opinion of this book.
