Each novel in Ruth Glover's Saskatchewan Saga is filled with enchanting characters, surprising plots, and fascinating historical detail. Set in the late 1800s, the stories introduce Scottish and English emigrants who bravely journey to the wild Canadian frontier. In Journey to Bliss, Glover's third book in the saga, Tierney Caulder loses Robbie Dunbar, the man she loves, when he leaves Scotland for Canada. When Anne Fraser, her best friend, is attacked by a man her family will not fight against, the two girls share their fear of a hopeless future. That is, until the British Women's Emigration Society makes them an offer they can't refuse--freedom and independence working as domestics in the wilds of Canada. On their trip across the sea, the two young women meet the frail Pearly Chapel, whose faith in God makes her a tower of strength in uncertain times. But will Pearly's prayers be enough to keep them safe? What will happen in their new homes? Will Tierney and Robbie ever be together again?
All of the books in this series are good, but this one might be my favorite. I love the way it follows the girls as they grow up and search for happiness. The Christian message is great too and seems a little deeper than other Christian novels I've read.
