The Forged Frontier

He was blamed for a tragedy he didn’t cause. Now the rope is waiting—and the woman he loves must run with him.

Cornwall, 1850.

Blacksmith George Hawthorne and Rose Cavill, the mine owner’s daughter, have risked everything for a love her family will never accept.

When disaster strikes beneath the Cornish soil, betrayal turns George into a wanted man. With his freedom—and possibly his life—hanging in the balance, George and Rose are forced to abandon their homes and flee across the Atlantic.

But reaching America is only the beginning.

From crowded ports to the unforgiving frontier, they must endure hardship, loss and dangers neither could have imagined. Together, they will fight to build a home, protect their family and forge a future from nothing.

Yet the past has followed them across the ocean—and the frontier always demands a price.
