Land of Heroes: Wilderness Dawning Series Book 4

By Dorothy Wiley

WESTERN WRITERS OF AMERICA SPUR FINALIST

When Alexander MacKay chooses to stay and fight for Texian freedom, he finds more than a cause-he finds Alexa Anderson, a brave woman who fears the very rebellion he believes in. As militias form and the Battle of Nacogdoches looms, love and liberty collide in a story of grit, honor, and the price of freedom.

Land of Heroes transports readers to the raw, untamed frontier of Mexican Texas, where the first sparks of rebellion kindle a fight for liberty-and where ordinary people become legends. Dorothy Wiley returns to the beloved Wyllie and MacKay families in this fourth standalone novel of the Wilderness Dawning Series.

Alexa Anderson opposes the militia that could save her family but cost them their lives. Rebels risked being shot by firing squads at the Mexican army's fort in the East Texas town of Nacogdoches. But is rebellion the only true path to safety and to love?

Alexander MacKay is expected to return to Kentucky. But he senses something he cannot ignore: Texas needs him. Torn between duty and family, both must decide what they will risk for love and for the cause of freedom. Alongside Bear MacKay and the famed James Bowie, he joins the Texian militia and faces a battle that could change history.
