Treasured grace
(Book)

1847: Grace Martindale has known more than her share of hardship. After her parents died, raising her two younger sisters becomes her responsibility. A hasty decision to head west seemed like an opportunity for a fresh start, but has instead left Grace in a precarious position. When missionary Dr. Marcus Whitman and his wife agree to let Grace and her sisters winter with them in Oregon, Grace is grateful. Grace also meets Alexis Armistead, an intriguing and infuriating fur trapper. But when a measles outbreak threatens lives at the mission and among the nearby native population, tensions rise.
