Lone Tree Claim – Audiobook

Step into the untamed Dakota frontier in Lone Tree Claim, a powerful historical novel of courage, survival, and second chances. Brought vividly to life in this immersive audiobook—narrated with emotional depth by Catherine Divaris and produced and published by Audiobook Publishing Services—this story captures the raw beauty and danger of America’s western plains.

Widowed by the Civil War, Katie Rose Kelly refuses to let loss dictate her destiny. With fierce determination, she travels west to the Dakota Territory, claims 160 acres of open prairie, and becomes a sheepherder—an audacious choice in a land dominated by men and ruled by unforgiving nature.

But life on the frontier is far from peaceful. Isolated on the endless prairie, Katie faces brutal weather, crushing solitude, and the wrath of powerful cattle barons who see sheep—and a woman’s independence—as a threat. Intimidation, prejudice, and danger follow her every step. Still, Katie stands her ground, driven by grit, resilience, and the belief that she deserves a future of her own making.

Amid hardship, she finds unexpected friendship, a sense of community, and the possibility of love—proof that even in the harshest landscapes, hope can take root.
