This is part of a series, yet each book can easily stand alone. The story is intriguing and the characters are believable. I was totally captured by the storyline. It brought me to tears several times. Definitely a good read and I highly recommend the rest of the series.

Excellent book = I couldn't put it down. Great heroine, realistic characters and feelings and a great underlying message about the power of having trust in the Lord.

Caught in a nation splitting apart. Angered by those who would enslave others. Emboldened by a passion to make a difference. Torn between the one she loves and a truth she can't deny. Here is Caroline Fletcher's story.

this was my first time to read lynn austin and i liked it. it was well written and the detail really brought you in. it was slightly long winded but as you can tell by the 4 and 1/2 star rating still a really good read. if you like christian fiction this is one of the better historical dramas. I look forward to reading the next in the series!

This is a really good Christian fiction book. I became engrossed in this book and read it in two days, which is pretty good for me. The characters are realistic and flawed which is sometimes not the case in Christian fiction. It takes place during the Civil war era from the perspective of the south. If you read this one you will want to read the next one. Highly recommended!
