Description:

No one captures the indomitable American spirit better than bestselling author Dorothy Garlock. No time needed that spirit more than the Depression era. And no road fostered more dreams than U.S. Route 66, the path to golden California. Now Dorothy Garlock takes you along the fabled highway's newly opened stretch in Oklahoma to meet the dreamers as they lived and loved. Whenever a car stops at her brother-in-law Andy's gas station, Leona Dawson is instantly on the alert. Most people are honest, but some are downright dangerous. When a mysterious Texan called Yates saves Andy's life and sticks around to help out, she's wary. Unmarried and living with her late sister's husband and two small girls, Leona has been the town scandal. Now Yates finds himself defending this tough and tender woman even as his stay risks further "disgrace." Just when Leona starts to trust him, her worst nightmare comes true. Tragedy strikes along Route 66. Suspicions spread like wildfire. And Yates and Leona must undergo a harrowing test of their love.
