After losing her husband during the Civil War, Katie Rose Kelly refuses to let tragedy define her future. Determined to rebuild her life, she journeys west to the vast Dakota Territory, where she stakes a 160-acre claim and becomes a sheepherder—one of the few women bold enough to take on such a challenge. Alone on the sweeping prairie, Katie must confront more than harsh weather and isolation. Powerful cattle barons view sheep as a threat to their grazing lands, and they are willing to intimidate anyone—especially a woman—to protect their interests.

The Civil War created countless spinsters and widows. Anna Olson was one of them. With no prospects for marriage and family, Anna pins her future on the frontier and heads west to stake a claim on the wide-open prairies.“Most women go from their father’s house to their husband’s house,” Anna said. “Here, I have my own house. I am my own person.” But the Dakota Plains are not empty. Anna’s new life collides with a Lakota warrior. Two Hawks MacKenzie, the son of a Scots fur trapper and a Lakota woman, takes an unusual interest in his new neighbor.
