Summary

On the surface, all appears serene as the third generation of Kades in pioneer Utah grow up to take their parents’ place in the vast, rugged regions of the West. But fate - or is it divine providence? - suddenly steps in.

Jessica Scott of Illinois finds herself waylaid among the Latter-day Saints in 1870s Utah while on a railroad trip to California. Alone and seeking assistance from her relatives, whose religious beliefs she scorns, 19-year-old Jessica meets her cousin of the same age, Ethan Kade, who is home for a few days from the cattle ranch where he is employed. Jessica’s presence threatens to ruin the carefully laid plans Ethan has already set in motion. He makes a momentous decision that will profoundly affect his own future, as well as that of his cousin. For her part, Jessica has no inkling of the transformation about to unfold in her own life.

Join Ethan and Jessica as they struggle to overcome their differences and face the dangers awaiting them at the Running W Ranch in volume four of The Kade Family Saga, Beside Still Waters. This stirring historical novel of unexpected adventure, romance, and spiritual discovery, set in authentic detail against the backdrop of the untamed West, will leave the listener wishing for more long after the book is finished.

Why the huge gap between books 3 & 4?

Another great book following the Kade family but I am massively confused as to why there is a huge gap in their story between books 3 & 4. At the end of book 3 we saw James propose to Ingar as a young man, book 4 starts when they are married and have grown up children with Christian and Lydia now dead. No explanation for the jump and no reminiscing to see what happened. The first three books cover James’ life from a baby to a young man in great detail so it is beyond me why we had to miss out on the next chapters of the lives of the Kanes and fast forward so much. Really irritating, I feel robbed! Gaping time lapse aside, another great story. Well told and really interesting. It’s an area of history that I wasn’t that familiar with and it had been a pleasure learning more about the pioneers.
