Train of Hope

A stolen carriage, a shorn lock of hair, and a promise to escape to the West. Our freedom was a train ride away... until fate cut the line.

I had it all planned out: escape Georgia's high society, find peace in the West with Leo, my soulmate. A life of love, far from the suffocating grip of my past. But when Leo's old bandit life collides with our future, our dreams derail amidst the whispers of crime and a cruel snip that robs more than just my hair.

"In a lawless land, can love truly be our guide?"

Then there's Ada, the brave little soul with eyes too old for her years. Together, we're a patchwork family stitched by necessity, chased by shadows of a life we yearn to leave behind. On a steam engine chugging towards hope, we find a new ally in an unlikely protector, whose voice promises safety but whose eyes mirror secrets untold.

Sometimes, the wildest adventures begin with a single train whistle... and the end of the line is just another beginning.
