This week, The Borrowed Book is giving away:
The Captive Trail by Susan Page Davis ~ The Captive Trail is second in a six-book series about four generations of the Morgan family living, fighting, and thriving amidst a turbulent Texas history spanning from 1845 to 1896. Although a series, each book can be read on its own.
Taabe Waipu has run away from her Comanche village and is fleeing south in Texas on a horse she stole from a dowry left outside her family’s teepee. The horse has an accident and she is left on foot, injured and exhausted. She staggers onto a road near Fort Chadbourne and collapses.
On one of the first runs through Texas, Butterfield Overland Mail Company driver Ned Bright carries two Ursuline nuns returning to their mission station. They come across a woman who is nearly dead from exposure and dehydration and take her to the mission.
With some detective work, Ned discovers Taabe Waipu identity. He plans to unite her with her family, but the Comanche have other ideas, and the two end up defending the mission station. Through Taabe and Ned we learn the true meaning of healing and restoration amid seemingly powerless situations.
Winners will be announced on Saturday, 09/24/11.

Hey Marybelle! The Captive Trail is part of the Texas Trail Series. Other authors in this series include Darlene Franklin and Vickie McDonough. I've only read Darlene Franklin's Lone Star Trail (so far) but it was FABULOUS! I'm sure Susan's book is as well.
