An Appointment with Destiny

By William Bruce

Born out of wedlock to a bitter and vindictive mother, Laura Ashleigh is a brilliant student with a gift for languages. Denied the opportunity to attend Yale College due to its men-only policy, she accepts a newly created position at the local library. The sudden death of her mother frees Laura from a life of servitude and daily criticisms, leaving her struggling to find purpose in her life.
An advertisement in a mid-west newspaper catches her attention: a horse rancher in Colorado named Ben McCallister is seeking a wife. With destiny beckoning, Laura posts a reply. As she journeys across Nebraska, she begins to transform, emerging from the shadows as a vibrant, confident woman ready to embrace life's challenges.
When the Army supply wagons she is traveling with are threatened by a large band of Cheyenne Indians, a stranger saves them. To her surprise, the man who saved them is none other than Ben McCallister, the man she is destined to marry. He is more than she had dared to hope for-handsome and dangerous, moving with the lethal grace of a jungle cat. Laura will lead him down a different path and shape their future; together with his half-Indian brother Jake, they will forge a dynasty.
