About this series
But Corrie is returning a different young woman than the one who left with her journal tucked into her suitcase and the dream of being a writer tucked into her heart. She feels restless as she tries to settle back into the pace of a small town, and the latest letter from Christopher only creates more questions. Perhaps the most relentless among them: Where will she find a home for her heart?

At almost twenty-one, Corrie has overcome the tragedies of her youth and made a name for herself as a journalist.

Now that her siblings are provided for, Corrie convinces a newspaperman to take a chance on her as a journalist. Soon, she is on her own in the rough and tumble towns of the California gold fields.

The War Between the States has escalated into a full-scale conflict threatening to tear the nation apart. Having been invited by President Lincoln to come to Washington, D.C., to assist in his reelection campaign, Corrie finds herself a long way from home in a most unusual situation--a young woman from the Wild West, with little education and experience, in the seat of power at the nation's capital. While writing and reporting from the battlefields, Corrie unwittingly uncovers a plot that could change the country's course forever, but taking action will put her very life at risk.
- A Home for the Heart (The Journals of Corrie Belle Hollister Book #8)
8
The Civil War is finally over, and it has been more than two years since Corrie Belle Hollister left her home and family in Miracle Springs, California, to travel across the country at President Lincoln's invitation. Her writing skills and reporting experience have made their own contribution to the Union's success, and now she is on her way home . . . back to the community where she grew to maturity, back to the family she loves. But Corrie is returning a different young woman than the one who left with her journal tucked into her suitcase and the dream of being a writer tucked into her heart. She feels restless as she tries to settle back into the pace of a small town, and the latest letter from Christopher only creates more questions. Perhaps the most relentless among them: Where will she find a home for her heart?
- Land of the Brave and the Free (The Journals of Corrie Belle Hollister Book #7)
7
Pursued as a Union spy inside Confederate territory, Corrie's desperate attempt to escape on horseback is cut short by the sound of gunfire and the excruciating pain in her back from a bullet. Mercifully, the fear and pain are quickly overtaken by darkness as the reins slip through her fingers. When Corrie slowly awakens from weeks of unconsciousness, the first face she sees belongs to Christopher Braxton, the young man who found her nearly dead on the roadside and carried her to safety. As she is nursed back to health, Corrie finds that the physical damage to her body is not nearly as difficult to treat as her lingering amnesia. Beginning with the single letter in her pocket, Corrie and Christopher struggle to piece together the limited clues to Corrie's past.
