Yearning for love, fifteen-year-old Esther Pershing is stuck on a wagon train to Oregon. Her father leads the 1847 company, her mother is ailing, and her younger siblings need her care. Nineteen-year-old Daniel Abercrombie, the only suitable young man on the journey, catches her fancy.

Though old enough to file a land claim in Oregon, Daniel is still a boy in his parents' eyes. Smitten by Esther's beauty and spirit, Daniel seeks her out.

What chance does the young couple's romance have when their fathers argue at every turn of the trail and their travels bring only danger, disease, and death?

NOTE: Although FOREVER MINE is the third book published, it takes place at the start of this series' chronology and can be read as the first in the series.

Author Biography

Theresa Hupp has lived on both ends of the Oregon Trail, which has inspired her writing. She grew up in Eastern Washington State and in the Willamette Valley in Oregon. Her ancestors include early emigrants to Oregon and immigrants to Sacramento, California (though her California forebearers arrived after the Gold Rush). She now lives in Kansas City, Missouri, near the beginning of the Oregon Trail.

Narcissa Whitman was one of Theresa's childhood heroines. As she was growing up, Theresa was in awe of the strength of the emigrants to Oregon and their fortitude in leaving behind everything and everyone they'd known in their former homes. She began thinking about writing about this era as a teenager, but it took her until her fifties to make it happen.

Theresa is the award-winning author of novels, short stories, essays, and poetry, and has worked as an attorney, mediator, and human resources executive. LEAD ME HOME, Theresa's first novel about Mac McDougall and Jenny Calhoun, was published in 2015 and has been a Number One bestselling novel about the Oregon Trail in Amazon's Kindle Store. Her second novel, NOW I'M FOUND, continuing Mac's and Jenny's story, has been a Number One bestseller about the California Gold Rush in the Kindle Store.

Both LEAD ME HOME and NOW I'M FOUND have also won awards from the Oklahoma Writers Federation, Inc., and Lead Me Home was runner-up for the 2016 "Show-Me" Best Book Award sponsored by the Missouri Writers Guild.

Theresa has also published a novel-a bestselling financial thriller-under a pseudonym, as well as an anthology under her own name, FAMILY RECIPE. In addition, Theresa has short works in various anthologies published by Chicken Soup for the Soul, Mozark Press, and Kansas City Voices.
