Dreams Across the Miles

In 1875, talented vocalist Josephine Zuercher has one burning dream: the Broadway stage. Driven by a passion for performing, she leaves Chicago, defying her family’s expectations and breaking the heart of the man who loves her. But the lights of New York City conceal a harsh reality, where success is fleeting, and survival means facing poverty, shifting ideals, and a rapidly changing world.

Meanwhile, in Racine, Wisconsin, Frederick Eckhardt devotes his life to building a successful piano business and rebuilding his community after disaster. Throughout the years, his heart remains tied to Josephine. But when an intriguing, independent widow enters his life and introduces him to the women’s suffrage movement, Frederick must confront what it truly means to fight for a future.
