About this listen

Adventurers, families, outlaws were all driven west in the 1860s by a longing for endless blue sky along with wild and wide-open spaces. Tracie Peterson, from her own Montana home, paints an unforgettable portrait of this rich, rugged landscape, populated by strong and spirited characters. When Dianne Chadwick urges her family to move west to her uncle's ranch in the Montana Territory, she has no idea that her new life in the rugged frontier - and even within her uncle's home - will not be the idyllic adventure she expects. But first she has to survive the arduous wagon journey with the help of guide Cole Selby, whose heart seems to be as hard as the mountains he loves.©2005 Kathleen Krull (P)2008 Recorded Books,LLC Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Romance Adventure

Terrible narrator

I really enjoyed the story but the narrator made it almost unbearable. Such a slow and stilted cadence and flat tone. it was like each character was speaking English as a second language and lacked any confidence and this was the same portrayal for each character. It was very confusing with the storyline and made all characters seem weak... which did not fit the story.

Good story, terrible narration

This was a good story with much sorrow and joy but the narrator did not portray this. No tone or emotion, flat and all the characters sounded the same. No intonation, stilted and constantly stopping to swallow our lick lips (sounded like). Made listening to almost unbearable so had to listen at a much faster speed than normal to get through it. Would like to listen to the remainder but not sure I can listen to this narrator again. But the story itself was good.
