Book Description
Each novel in Ruth Glover's Saskatchewan Saga is filled with enchanting characters, surprising plots, and fascinating historical detail. Set in the late 1800s, the stories introduce Scottish and English emigrants who bravely journey to the wild Canadian frontier. In Journey to Bliss, Glover's third book in the saga, Tierney Caulder loses Robbie Dunbar, the man she loves, when he leaves Scotland for Canada. When Anne Fraser, her best friend, is attacked by a man her family will not fight against, the two girls share their fear of a hopeless future. That is, until the British Women's Emigration Society makes them an offer they can't refuse-freedom and independence working as domestics in the wilds of Canada. On their trip across the sea, the two young women meet the frail Pearly Chapel, whose faith in God makes her a tower of strength in uncertain times. But will Pearly's prayers be enough to keep them safe? What will happen in their new homes? Will Tierney and Robbie ever be together again?

From the Back Cover
ATTENTION! Nice girls are needed in the Canadian West! This appeal, printed on a large poster from the British Women's Emigration Society, strikes a magical chord of hope with three young women. With almost nothing to lose, Tierney, Anne, and Pearly jump aboard a so-called "Bride ship," fleeing their secret sorrows in Scotland for a chance to become "gentle tamers" of the frontier. Tierney Caulder: When her dear Da passes, and her great love leaves her forever, a determined Tierney leads herself and her friends on an exhilarating expedition to a new land. Anne Fraser: Sweet Anne has quietly endured the thankless job of catering to her loutish brothers for too long. When she falls victim to a cruel nobleman, an escape to Canada seems the best way out. But will there ever be enough distance between Anne and the fear in her heart? Pearly Chapel: With a name as luminous as her personality, waifish Pearly spreads her shining faith from London's slums to Saskatchewan's windblown prairie. Escaping heartbreak, terror, and poverty, these three adventurous women embark on a journey of revelation, wonder, and growth-a Journey to Bliss.
