Cobalt Skies

Susannah Piper lost everyone she loved in the war, her Confederate father and brothers, and even her Yankee husband. Left with only her thick Georgia drawl and a contrary mule, her sights are set on the state of Oregon-as far from the battlefields and prejudices as she can get.

But when Susannah arrives in desperation at Hick's camp one dark night, even he can't turn her away. He's heading to Wyoming, not Oregon, but it's in the right direction, and Susannah doesn't plan on being left behind. The resulting clash of North and South may spark another type of civil war.
