This was one of my Amazon Prime free Reads. It definitely captured my heart and I want more. Thanks to the author for bringing out the Orphan Train story better (warts and all). I appreciate a storyline that shows bad results as well as good.

I really like the series name; Hearts on the rails. It is a fitting name and a story that is worthy of attention.
It is written with so much care that I could not help but pink away a few tears in the first book. The lives of the Collins family well described that I got lost in the pages.
The author knows the subject well and has addressed the orphan plight exceptionally. The story goes back in time when there were no firm rules about adoption and the neglect and abuse evident in many cases. The hurt and pain it had left caused for heartfelt stories.
Bridget and her four siblings were living in unnatural circumstances but with the help of caring people, they were able to rise from the tenements of New York to a new life.
The vivid storytelling took you from the rat-infested streets to the heart of Wyoming. You experience the pain and heartache with them while you meet wonderful people on the way.
Truly a gripping story of hope, patients and determination that captures the imagination. ( )
