When handsome cowboy Guy James arrived in Cheyenne, young Isabella Lucci was thunderstruck by his charming ways. What she thought was a dream come true—becoming his bride—turned out to be her worst nightmare. Andre Montegue, a fur trapper from Thatcher Springs, had no idea that his good fortune of finding shelter on a stormy Oregon night would forever change his life. It was there that he would encounter a beautiful young woman, one he could care for deeply—only to discover that she was wanted for murder. In the meantime, Alecia Lundgren had planned “New York’s party of the decade”—a long-awaited reception for her daughter and son-in-law, Britta and Joshua Reed. For country bumpkins, Josh and Joe and Betsy, too, had never felt more out of place than in New York City. Would Britta be sorry she had left a life of luxury to become a rancher’s wife? From Thatcher Springs to Baker City and the Willamette Valley of Oregon, and as far away as New York, Blessed Assurance is a story of deep faith, of healing and hope, and of miracles in the lives of everyday folks.
Josh and Joe Reed, twins, twenty years old, launch out on their own for Oregon. What was meant to be a stopover in Baker City ends up a godsend for one brother and a tragedy for the other. The day they rode into town would forever change not only their lives but the lives of Betsy McLemore and her mother, Sloan. Josh and Joe Reeds adventure would ultimately alter another life too, that of Britta Lundgren, thousands of miles away in New York City. All the while, back in Thatcher Springs, Millie was planning the ultimate family reunion. It would be an event like never before! She only hoped Silas wouldnt shoot her for what she had done.

Postal Intelligence connects and situates histories of the post and government intelligence alongside print technology and state power in the wider context of the early modern communications revolution. In the sixteenth century, postal services became central to domestic governance and foreign policy enterprises, extended government reach and surveillance, and offered new control over the public sphere. Rachel Midura focuses on the Tassis family, members of which served as official postmasters to the dukes of Milan, the pope, Spanish kings, and Holy Roman emperors. Using administrative records and family correspondence, she follows the Tassis family, their agents, and their rivals as their influence expanded from northern Italy across Europe. Postal Intelligence shows how postmasters and postmistresses were key players in early modern diplomacy, commerce, and journalism, whose ultimate success depended on both administrative ingenuity and strategic ambiguity.
