West with the Wind is a very interesting look at the westward movement to California. Ms. Myers has written a beautiful love story within the backdrop of expedition life. It details the hardships and sacrifices the travelers made and interactions with different groups of people can be good or go very, very wrong.Mariah is on the run, but she is also fiercely independent and needs no one but her dog, Worthy. Yet she's drawn to Camp Jefferson, who is the trail guide for an expedition out to California. Everyone going to California may say they are looking for different things, but they all want a fresh start. Will Mariah's secret haunt her even as far as California?Beautifully written and deftly weaving in historic aspects life on the trail, Ms. Myers has given a new name to 'Western romances'. I look forward to reading Ms. Myers' future books!
