Dahlia's Secret (Love on the Oregon Trail #4)

Dahlia and Matthew married in secret, but circumstances tore them apart before they had a chance to live together. When they get a second chance at love, will they grab hold or let hurt feelings stand between them?

Dahlia is so ashamed of her accusations against her husband after her brother's accidental death, followed by their mother's sudden death, that she runs away from home and her new husband. She blamed him for the losses she'd suffered when none of it was his fault. But that isn't the worst of it. A far greater transgression now stands between them. One she's sure he will never be able to forgive. She doesn't want him to know what she did, or that she's expecting a child. Although all is not as it seems, she believes the best thing to do is to go far enough away so he'll never find her.

Matthew loved Dahlia from their early teens, but her brother warned him to stay away from her. When she was 19 and he was 22, they married in secret and planned to go to Oregon. But Dahlia believes Matt caused her brother's accidental death, and has pulled away from him. When he tries to make amends, her father tells him she's gone with neighbors to Oregon. His only choice is to follow her.

Will Dahlia and Matt find enough faith in each other and in God to forgive and be forgiven so they can renew their vows and finally live as the married couple they long to be?

This is a sweet, clean, wholesome Oregon Trail second chance romance of love renewed set in 1851. Each story included in the series Love on the Oregon Trail is set on a section of the Trail and is part of the same wagon train.
