For everything there is a season. A season for joy. A season for sorrow. A season for testing. Jem Perkins has it all money, a fine house, a handsome husband, and a new baby boy. But when her family fortunes turn, Jems husband Seth leads her to a new home: a sod house on a Nebraska homestead.It is a season of growth for Jem as she reluctantly confronts her new realities: back-breaking labor, dangerous illness, and mind-numbing isolation. She learns to embrace her new role as a capable woman and marriage partner and discovers an awareness of Gods hand in her life. Then, on January 12, 1888, the history-making Childrens Blizzard sweeps across the land, ushering in a season of hardship she never expected. Can Jems confidence, marriage, and new-found faith weather the storm?
