Dueling the Desperado:
It's been several years since Araceli Arroyo left behind the burning ruins of her family's hacienda in New Mexico for a new start in California. Despite the time that's passed and all the loss she's suffered, the painful memory of war is like fresh paint on a blank canvas. Perhaps that's why the prints she creates always hold a touch of sadness. However, she's determined to produce something new - a masterpiece that will inspire the folks in the growing town of Blessings. Could the new hire at her father's sawmill help her do that... or will the secrets he carries destroy them both?
Where the Snowy Owl Sleeps:
Known as "Snowy Owl" amongst her people, Kela Tukumu is less interested in taking a husband than she is in becoming the first medicine woman of her Miwok tribe. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that she is rather fierce to behold--taller and stronger than all the other women, and even many of the men... or maybe it is simply due to the terrible tragedy she heard all her life--the one that took away her grieving mother before Kela had the chance to even know her. Regardless of the reason, Kela is determined to stay the course. With the influx of new settlers in the territory, her people have suffered much. She has decided it is her responsibility to help them heal. However, doing so may require an alliance with the local town doctor in ways she never imagined.
Birth of the Butterfly:
Despite her father being of noble blood, Mariposa Sanchez Tanaka has lived her whole life with the stigma of being a servant's daughter. With grim marriage prospects, she has wanted to devote her life to studying the ways of the Kunoichi. Of course, there is only so much one can learn from a tattered piece of paper found in a sack of rice flour. Still, she is determined to live a life with purpose - which becomes clear only after foolishly losing a precious heirloom. Resolved to recover it, other problems arise and she finds herself in the town of Blessings, seemingly taking her farther away from her goal. Will a handsome local help bring her back to it... and discover her true path?
Desire and deception, dismay and deliverance... these classic westerns burn as bright as the summer sun setting on a golden California coastline. Enjoy the mysterious Wild West of Blessings!
