The only life Viola Chivers ever wanted was here in these Klamath Mountains, loving and serving her family. Pa's ambitions for her were different: go back East and become a lady, in an elegant "e;finishing school."e; But Vi's already "e;finished,"e; and she knows what she wants: a life here with logger Stephen Miller, a man who shares her faith. Can Vi and Steve find a way to be together, and can she make sure this isn't her last Christmas in the Oregon Country?
