Risking everything to make those dreams come true, Katie and Harry leave all they know behind for the boomtowns of Texas. Through the prosperity of the Roaring Twenties, the devastation of the Great Depression, and the ravages of World War II, they struggle to build their future and hold on to their hopes. But when an unexpected tragedy strikes, Katie must look to herself for the strength to hold her family -- and her marriage -- together. Even as she rises to the pinnacle of success, she must struggle to capture those lone-ago dreams...without breaking her heart!
