A Long Trail to Oregon

Samson Butterworth was only seven when his family were murdered and he did as his father said.he ran. Living on the streets of Boston led him to an orphanage that shipped him away on 'The Orphan Train'. The family who took him for the next ten years gave him love but never broke through the horrible truth he held inside. All the killing in the war soon disillusioned him even more, and it took his only friend to get him through.
Delilah was a Morgan Horse and the moment he met her, his life changed. It didn't get any better, but he learned to handle it differently. A crusty old wagon scout and a pretty young girl worked on the rest and he finally decided what he wanted to do with his life. Owning a ranch and raising Morgan Horses was a big challenge and knowing that she was willing to wait made it worthwhile.but Merle Hunter had other plans for her.
