H. A. Cody 
Jess of the Rebel Trail [EPUB ebook] 

Hiram Alfred Cody was a Canadian clergyman who turned to writing in his spare time, eventually completing dozens of novels over the course of his career. Jess of the Rebel Trail is something of a departure from many of Cody’s works. It follows the fortunes of Jess, a rebellious, independent-minded young woman who suddenly finds herself at the center of a family scandal.
