Serenity's Quest — Kay D. Rizzo

Swept away on another adventure, Serenity finds herself living on the brink of a wild and untamed land where Spanish vaqueros rub shoulders with mountain men, and Indians buy tobacco and salt for the winter alongside Russian immigrant farmers.
“This is the strangest place, Lord. One minute I think I hate it here and the next, You scatter a thousand diamonds across the sky and I think I could live here forever.”
Uplifting and encouraging, Serenity's Quest traces the story of a young girl's longing to discover God's destiny for her life on an untamed frontier in the years prior to the Civil War.
