Two people: one white, one black. One family escapes the oppression of 19th-century slavery; the other seeks refuge from the oppression of character gone incorrect. They meet in the wilds of Oregon, in a world far not the same as the places of their origins. Hope is a strong, vivacious girl, open to friendships and willing to accept all. Joshua is the black teenager who becomes her best ally even though her family will not wish it. When Hope runs blind from scarlet fever, Joshua is instrumental in finding help on her behalf, and Elijah and Mia pave the way for a romantic relationship that spans the generations. A couple of years pass, and now Joshua comes to Hope's help again, when it appears there's a way to restore her vision. When their romantic relationship blooms into something more serious, it turns out that the ones who are truly blind are those who let racism stand in the way of love. Set in 1800s Oregon, Hope's quest has her getting together with historical characters such as Oregon Senator George Baldwin and Mr. William Clark (Montana's Copper Ruler) and is also a story that will surpass the restrictions of prejudice.
