This epic journey is not at all what she expected.

Joel Vargas can’t believe he’s lost his older brother in the wilds of the Rocky Mountains after surviving their harrowing voyage across the Atlantic. And he can’t shake the feeling that Adam—his only living relative—is in dire trouble. No matter what the cost, he and his band of friends won’t stop until Adam is found. He doesn’t have time to contend with the two Indian women who seem to be shadowing his every move.

After the devastating loss of her daughter and husband to a sickness that swept through their Nez Perce camp, Elan is desperate to find an escape from her grief. As she and her friend journey through the mountains toward the great river, a band of white men is the last thing she expects to find, especially as winter blows in full force.

When the dangers increase, accomplishing Joel’s mission becomes the only hope for all their survival. If the elements don’t consume them, Elan has a feeling of life will never be the same for any of them.

From a USA Today bestselling author comes another epic journey through breathless landscapes and intense adventure.

My Thoughts on Hope in the Mountain River:

I love how this series combines the white people and the native people of the Rocky Mountains.  When you read this book you are getting a wonderful description of what the mountains look like and the terrain.  You’re seeing what it might have been like to travel and risk your life daily.  I love that about this series and this book. 

Immediately after starting this book, I fell in love with Elan.  She’s a new character to this series and one full of mystery but also sorry.  There is so much to learn and find out about her.  

Book two in a series this one follows the story started in the first.  While it can be read as a stand-alone book, it’s going to be a much richer read if you have read the first book first. 

I loved the cover.  Misty Beiler is one of my favorite authors and I honestly could not wait for this next book in the series to arrive.  As soon as it did I opened the cover and began devouring the new to me story.  It did not disappoint and now I can’t recommend it enough to you.  As always, I recommend reading a series in order and not skipping book one.  You won’t regret it!

More from Misty

I’ve always been a horse lover, and was blessed to grow up on a farm. My brother and I each had ponies of our own and rode hours each day. When we were old enough to graduate to full-size horses, we met neighbours who also had horses and loved to ride together. The two mares they rode had a mottled black and white spotted look, which I knew to be part of the Appaloosa breed. Through hears of riding together, I developed a deep appreciation for those two Appaloosa horses, as well as respect for the entire breed! Those two mares proved they could outrun and outlast any of the other horses in our riding group.

I’ve long wanted to include Appaloosas in one of my stories, especially since the breed was said to have begun in the Nez Perce tribe who lived just west of the Rocky Mountains. I’m so excited for you to meet Elan, the heroine in Hope in the Mountain River!

Elan and her friend are travelling through the Rockies on their Appaloosa horses, animals who can ride faster and longer than all the other horses in their group—even through the treacherous terrain of the Rocky Mountains!

I pray you love this story as much as I loved writing it. Enjoy a glimpse of the famous Appaloosa horse!
