Great story, great narration

I was given this book in exchange for an unbiased review via audiobook boom. I am a big fan of true to life westerns and this one hit the spot. It is not Louie Lamore grade but it stands out. I like the love story because it is clean and they get to know each other and still like each other before falling in love. I like the intrigue that surrounds the death of her father and the secrets that the colonel is keeping. the reveal is important. The listening public could use some more clean historical westerns. I like this one almost as much as I do the mail order brides books.

The Colonel’s Lady

EXCELLENT!!! I have thoroughly enjoyed every book 📖 that I have read, written by Laura Frantz. This is the 5th book 📚 that I have read written by her. She is an excellent author.

Good historical information

I liked the descriptive style that the author used. I was able to picture the fort and the soldiers etc. it’s mostly a romance but it has plenty of  interesting detail unrelated to the love interest.

Great book!

I really enjoyed learning from the historical setting, and the realistic portrayal of Christian characters. Interesting storyline too.

Great story!

Laura Frantz doesn’t disappoint! All her books are fantastic. I read or listen to them over and over!
