Josh Harper may be the shortest and least physical of the Harper brothers, but he stands tall and strong as the hero in Call of the Prairie. I love books about romance and strong family relationships, and Vickie McDonough scores big on both counts with this Prairie Promises series. Im already looking forward to book three.
Dorothy Clark, Author, Falling for the Teacher
Call of the Prairie is the perfect follow-up to Whispers on the Prairie. This second installment in the Pioneer Promises series does not fail to inspire. Enthralling characters and another page-turning plot had me staying up well past my bedtime! Three cheers for Vickie McDonough!

I was particularly interested in this story because I also have asthma. Vickies book gave me an understanding of how hard it was for people to understand this condition in the late 1800s, as well as how little doctors knew about how to control its symptoms. I loved watching the hero and heroine move from a place where each felt constrained into the plans God had for them from the beginning. I walked right beside them through it all. The secondary characters were also well-developed. As always, Vickie McDonough carries her readers to a place they havent been and reveals the setting to them like a painter layering colors to complete a masterpiece.
