Will Ellis Lose All at the Alamo?

Ellis Dumont finds a man in New Orleans Grey unconscious on Dumont property in 1836. As his fevers rage, the man mutters strange things about treasures and war. Either Claiborne Gentry has lost his mind or he’s a spy for the American president—or worse, for the Mexican enemy that threatens their very lives. With the men of her family away, Ellis must stand courageous and decide who she can trust. Will she put her selfish wants ahead of the future of the republic or travel with Clay to Mission San Jose to help end the war?

Join the adventure as the Daughters of the Mayflower series continues with The Alamo Bride by Kathleen Y’Barbo.

My Thoughts:

The next installment of The Daughters of the Mayflower continues with the time leading up to the fateful Battle of the Alamo. Ellis Valmont can trace her roots back to the Mayflower, but little does she know that she is involved in history making of her own. With her father and older brother off to help Texas fight for its freedom from Mexico, Ellis and her mother are making do the best that they can running the ranch when a very wounded man washes up on shore of their property.

Clay Gentry has been sent on a mission. As basically a secret agent working for the President of the US, he has a very important mission to take care of. He did not foresee the bullets flying his way or the amnesia that has muddled his thinking. Ellis and Clay both must learn to trust each other, even knowing that Clay could very well be a spy working for the enemy. Thank goodness love prevails in this action adventure story that is a nice addition to this series.

I like these two characters together. If ever there was a couple more opposite in character, I have not yet read about them. If you are looking for more of a subterfuge adventure story with a bit of romance, this book delivers.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.
