About this ebook

The Civil War battlefield is the last place Quakeress Faith Cathwell thought she’d find herself. But with a gift for nursing, Faith seizes this opportunity to join the fight for abolition—and to search for Shiloh, a freeborn childhood friend who was kidnapped and sold south by unscrupulous slave catchers.

Knowing it’s much too dangerous for her to search enemy territory alone, Faith enlists the help of Colonel Devlin Knight, who is indebted to her for saving his cousin’s life. A career soldier, Dev is committed to the preservation of the Union but conflicted about freeing his own slave and confidant, who plans to enlist as soon as Dev gives him manumission papers.

Blazing a trail east with the rest of Grant’s army, Dev and Faith fight their personal battles—and a growing attraction to each other. When beliefs clash and passions flare, they quickly find that the only thing more dangerous than the war surrounding them is the battle within their hearts.

    This book is not very historically accurate, but I still enjoyed it for the most part. The main character, Faith, is far too tomboyish for her time. She sometimes wears overalls in public and no one thinks anything of it. Trust me, women did not wear overalls in the 1800s. I don't know why some historical fiction writers have such a hard time with this fact.

    I like historical fiction, especially romance historical fiction. So I was pretty sure I would like this. I appreciated it even more when I discovered it was not only romance historical fiction, but also Christian. That is always a nice element to have. It gives me a boost for my own life. I appreciate the struggles the main character goes through and cheer for her throughout.

    I liked how this book started; by giving you the preview of what the next 3 stories were going to be about. When the 3 sisters lose their pastor father, they all 3 set out to find the right man through being mail-order-brides. Faith is the first sister to leave and heads to Texas, where her well-to-do rancher, Nicholas Shepherd awaits her, along with his not-so-pleasant mother. Their wedding keeps getting postponed for different reasons, while Faith tries to get along with the Mom and learns to try and understand the quiet and sometimes moody, Nicholas.There is much going on in this story and you will be cheering Faith on as she is determined to make her circumstances work. Her strong Christian background from her father will help her out when she wants to use her tongue for more than kindness. I enjoyed and appreciated watching both Nicholas and his Mom change and loved how the author brought this story to its conclusion. Looking forward to reading about how the other two sisters do in the next 2 books, "June" and "Hope".In the back of the book "About the Author" it states: "When asked what one thing Lori would like others to know about her, she readily says, 'I'm not perfect, just forgiven by the grace of God.' Christianity to Lori means peace, joy, and the knowledge that she has a Friend, a Savior, who never leaves her side. Through her books, she hopes to share this wondrous assurance with others." I feel she did a great job of doing just that!
