Mariah relied on her beauty all her life to catch eyes and
gather marriage proposals. Now, she and her sisters have sold themselves into
indentured servitude to help their father and she believes that her beauty will
catch her a wealthy bachelor. When she stands on the block a good looking,
young man calls out the winning bid and she rides next to him to live with his
family. When she gets there, though, his mother is a powerful woman who has
other ideas for her son than to marry a bondswoman. Just when things are
looking up, Colin goes off to war against the French with George Washington.
Mariah doesn’t know if he will ever come back, and if he does, will he still
want to marry her?
This is a fun well-written Christian romance that follows
the silly Mariah as she grows up and learns to rely on Jesus instead of her
looks. The historical setting is during the pre-Revolutionary War era, when
most of the east coast was still unsettled. If you enjoy Christian historical
romances, put this one on your list.
