John Russell's heart aches from the loss of his wife, but the Shenandoah Valley frontiersman needs to marry again for his daughter's sake. At first he believes he has found the right young woman, despite their differences, but his faith falters when time reveals she isn't quite what she seemed. Can he truly love her?

Unlike her disgraced sister, Abigail Williams obeys the Commandments. At least, she thinks herself a Christian until a buckskin-clad newcomer courts her. He treats her kindly but also introduces her to a sermon by the controversial preacher, George Whitefield. Her self-righteousness is shattered, and she wonders about their relationship. If she confesses her lack of faith, will John continue to love her? (From Goodreads)


Review:

~I'd like to thank the wonderful author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~

I've been craving a good historical fiction for a while, and this hits it right on the spot. Written extraordinarily, this book reminds me of Janet Oke and Ann Rinaldi, both in writing style and genre. I dearly love all of the characters, their moral standards, and, well, everything! I don't think it could have been written any better.

I mean, all in all, I loved everything about this book and have no complaints! I look forward to reading more books by this author!
