Everything She Didn't Say by Jane Kirkpatrick
About
There is more than one way to tell a story . . .
In 1911, Carrie Strahorn wrote a memoir sharing some of the most exciting events of twenty-five years of shaping the American West with her husband, railroad promoter and writer Robert Strahorn. Nearly ten years later, she's finally ready to reveal the secrets she hadn't told anyone--even herself.
Certain that her writings will be found only after her death, Carrie confronts the pain and disappointment of the pioneering life with startling honesty. She explores the danger a woman faces of losing herself within a relationship with a strong-willed man. She reaches for the courage to accept her own worth. Most of all she wonders, Can she ever feel truly at home in this rootless life?
New York Times bestselling author Jane Kirkpatrick draws out the emotions of living--the laughter and pain, the love and loss--to give us a window not only into the past but into our own conflicted hearts. Based on a true story.

Author Jane Kirkpatrick is one of my favorites. Her newest release "Everything She Didn't Say" is another great story. In this new novel she writes about the pioneers who shaped our new country. Carrie Strahorn is a young woman who goes with her new husband so that he can tell all about how great the railroad is going to be to them. You will find yourself laughing and crying right along with her as she comes to some realizations that everything might not as it seems. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves history and romance. I give this book a 5/5. I was given this book by Revell Publishing Company and all opinions are mine.
