Becoming United: A story of love, faith, and community in 1933 (Flyover County - Becoming Series Book 2)

South Dakota, 1933. The Depression and a relentless drought weigh heavily on Peter Hawkins and his family.

Peter has worked tirelessly to provide for his growing household, but thin, dry wheat fields leave their future uncertain. With five children to care for—including twin toddlers—he’s counting on one good field to carry them through the year. When the custom harvest crews refuse to come, even that hope begins to fade.

Delia does her part—stretching the cream, butter, and eggs from her hens—while Peter shoulders the burden of keeping the farm alive. Then Peter strikes on a bold idea, but it will take the strength of family and the support of neighbors to bring it to life.

In the hardest times, true wealth is found not in crops or coin, but in love, faith, and the bonds of community.

Becoming United is a heartwarming historical novel of resilience, family, and the power of working together—an uplifting story of life and love on the prairie.
