About this listen
On the surface, all appears serene as the third generation of Kades in pioneer Utah grow up to take their parents’ place in the vast, rugged regions of the West. But fate - or is it divine providence? - suddenly steps in.
Jessica Scott of Illinois finds herself waylaid among the Latter-day Saints in 1870s Utah while on a railroad trip to California. Alone and seeking assistance from her relatives, whose religious beliefs she scorns, 19-year-old Jessica meets her cousin of the same age, Ethan Kade, who is home for a few days from the cattle ranch where he is employed. Jessica’s presence threatens to ruin the carefully laid plans Ethan has already set in motion. He makes a momentous decision that will profoundly affect his own future, as well as that of his cousin. For her part, Jessica has no inkling of the transformation about to unfold in her own life.
Join Ethan and Jessica as they struggle to overcome their differences and face the dangers awaiting them at the Running W Ranch in volume four of The Kade Family Saga, Beside Still Waters. This stirring historical novel of unexpected adventure, romance, and spiritual discovery, set in authentic detail against the backdrop of the untamed West, will leave the listener wishing for more long after the book is finished.

Story
In an ancient land in a time foretold by prophets, a babe was born beneath a shining star. Thirty years later, Jesus of Nazareth began teaching a message of hope, peace, and love. He claimed to be the Son of God, and his words - and his life - would change the world. Though David ben Joseph is quick to accept Jesus as the Messiah, the rest of his family is more cautious.

Story
Pillar of Light—the first volume in the series The Work and the Glory—begins the epic story of the Benjamin Steed family. In the 1820s they move from Vermont to Palmyra Township in upstate New York in search of better farmland. There they meet a young man named Joseph Smith and are thrown into the maelstrom of conflict and controversy that swirls around him. Did he really see the Father and the Son in a pillar of light? Has he truly been visited by angelic messengers? What is all this talk about gold plates and new scripture? In short, is he a prophet and seer or a monumental fraud?

Story
Only twice had she set foot inside the building since the massacre. The first time had been just a month after the tragedy .. . . The second time she had returned to the scene of the crime had been two days ago when she forced herself to enter the building to check on the temporary office for the SEAL team. The counselor she had seen in the months after the shooting had encouraged her to face her fears, but now . . . Riley wasn’t sure she was ready to face them after all.

Story
England, 1943: Home is no longer safe for eight-year-old twins Molly and Jacob. Night after night, wailing bombs and screeching planes skim the rooftops overhead. They cradle each other, shivering in terror, not knowing if they'll live to see dawn. Their mother, Martha, has no choice but to evacuate them to the safety of the countryside. At the train station, Martha bites back tears as she says good-bye to her precious children. Knowing she might never see them again, she gives Jacob a letter, pressing the envelope into his hands and telling him to only read it if they are in danger.

LDS historical fiction
Loved it all. Wholesome story for the entire family. I enjoyed the range war as it shows the many difficulties met in the West.

Utah, with its pioneer spirit.
The Kade Family Saga can scratch a certain kind of itch, but if you're looking for sex or surprises, this ain't the place. Book 4 is both wholesome LDS agitprop and a postmodern Western, likely to satisfy conservative grandmothers and feminist twelve year olds but to leave everyone else a little bored. Can earnest and plainspoken ranch hand Ethan convince his feisty and skeptical cousin Jessica to join the church? Will they and their friends survive the perils of the Old West, such as rattlesnakes and ornery cattle-rustlers? This generally inoffensive fourth installment in the series answers those questions and not much more.

Very Disappointing
Extremely boring. No adventures of any kind. And so much boring content. Nothing comparable to first 2 books. Sadly that's usually par for course with book series. Reads more like a young adult romance! When you have beloved characters like Lydia and Christian, you don't just remove them.

Kade Family Saga
So very disappointed in the book. I thought there would be more with the parents that started the whole Kade Family. It felt like they were just swept under the rug to be forgotten, which is a problem with today’s society. I was very very disappointed.
Also it said that Jessica’s mother was coming but there wasn’t any information regarding her arrival and how she felt about Jessica’s baptism.
