Caroline

Roberts, Willo Davis. 1984. Caroline. Scholastic (Sunfire Romance). 361 pages.

I've mentioned this before, but I just loved the Sunfire romance novels (name books) published by Scholastic in the 1980s. Caroline was one of my favorites. In this story we meet Caroline "Caro" who is determined to follow her two older brothers west to California no matter the cost. She decides to cut off her hair, rub dirt on her face, don her brother's hand-me-downs, and go west disguised as a boy. She pairs up with Dan Riddle for the long trek west. But what Caroline didn't expect was that she'd fall in love on the way...and that her brothers would be so tricky to find. Will Dan forgive her for her deception? Can he return her feelings? Will she ever find her brothers? Can she have her happily ever after...gold nuggets and all? Read and see in this lovely little romance.
