About the Book:
Join the adventure through history, romance, and family legacy as the Daughters of the Mayflower continues with The Cumberland Bride by Shannon McNear. Thomas Bledsoe and Kate Gruener are traveling the Wilderness Road when the mounting conflict between natives and settlers will require each of them to tap into a well of courage.
My Thoughts:
Wowzers! What more can I say but that this book is in the
top ten books for me this year. The Cumberland Bride is part of The Daughters of the Mayflower series
written by different authors and all can be read as stand-alones. I have been
enjoying this series and this particular story really grabbed me and took me on
an adventure on a pack horse train down through Kentucky and would not let me
go.
This is a story full of family, adventure, and romance.
Kate, moving with her family and Thomas their guide barely kiss in the first
3/4ths of the book, but the atmosphere was certainly filled with romantic
tension. This was the sort of book that every glance or touch was meaningful. I just really enjoyed going along for the ride
and rooting for these two since the first time they laid eyes on each other.
Another aspect I really liked in this book, besides the
history and romance, was the worshipful prayers that were just so natural and
second nature our two main characters prayed to our Father in heaven. This book
is in no way preachy, but those simple prayers were lyrical to read.
I am looking forward to more in this delightful series.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour
Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.
