364 pages
While growing up the Gallatin sisters never had a place to call home. It was not until recently their father settled down and they began to make a home for themselves in Montana. Their father and the three daughters managed a roadhouse at the crossroads of two stagecoach lines. Suddenly their father is killed and the oldest daughter Gwen believes it is all her fault. Gwen says she is cursed and harm comes to anyone she loves.
While keeping the roadhouse in operation an unexpected visitor looking for his brother turns Gwen’s life upside down. Lacy is determined to find who is responsible for her father’s death and Beth is trying to protect Gwen from this new unexpected visitor. Does Gwen dare fall in love again? And is she cursed?
A Promise to Believe In is the first book in a new series called Brides of Gallatin. Book one is Gwen’s story. Each of the sisters had me laughing out loud and sometimes crying; I can not wait to read Beth and Lacy’s story. Tracie Peterson does a beautiful job in bringing each of her characters to life and reminding us of the hardships of 19th century life.
