Whatever Tomorrow Brings begins with the Donovan family stepping off a clipper ship for a holiday from their missionary post in Hawaii. Tragedy meets them instead, and twenty-year-old Kaitlin must hold her family together in an unfamiliar land.

Can their friendship be restored after his heartbreaking betrayal so long ago? Historically accurate and brimming with positive values, this series entertains readers with uplifting stories of life and love, faith and courage in the boomtown West.
