My review today is on the Historical Romance, The Tory's Daughter. This book takes place in the 1780's in Mohawk Valley. This story is well written, heart warming, and full of faith. I know you are going to love it. I have always enjoyed books from this time in our history.
Joseph Garnet is a widower with two small children. He is visiting his wife's grave when he and his brother-in-law are called to a neighboring farm that is under attack from the Otetiani's raiders. They ride out to help save the neighbors but the husband is already dead along with their livestock. They do save his wife and children that are trapped in a burning cabin. Some of the men take the family to a nearby fort. Joseph see a young Indian boy try to steal his horse. He manages to stop the boy but is threatened and Andrew shoots the kid. The Indian turns out to be a girl and they take her to his cabin and he locks her up. He soon realizes she was a neighbor. The family had been run off after the husband had joined the British Army. This was a girl that had always intrigued him. What is he to do with her?
Hannah Cunningham is a half breed. When her family was run off their farm; her brothers were forced to join the Patriots Army and Hannah, her mother, and her sisters went to live with cousins in the Indian tribe. Hannah is the only one left and has returned to find her brothers. She is captured by Joseph a man she had once dreamed of. When her cousin can't find her he comes to the homestead in full war paint. Joseph is forced to marry her. He promises to find her brothers.
A long journey to find the boys after being gone for six years. Where do they go to find them? How can Joseph find a way to keep Hannah with him? Will his secret destroy their fragile marriage? How can Hannah compete with his love for his dead wife? God has a plan for this little family; a plan for a hope and a future. God has a plan for you too. Give Him your heart and watch Him work in your life.
