With "pitch-perfect writing" (USA Today), Brooks follows March as he leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause in the Civil War.

From Louisa May Alcott's beloved classic Little Women, Geraldine Brooks has animated the character of the absent father, March, and crafted a story "filled with the ache of love and marriage and with the power of war upon the mind and heart of one unforgettable man" (Sue Monk Kidd). With "pitch-perfect writing" (USA Today), Brooks follows March as he leaves behind his family to aid the Union cause in the Civil War. His experiences will utterly change his marriage and challenge his most ardently held beliefs.

In 1860 Persy had been sold to Sweetmore, a Louisiana sugar plantation, alongside a striking light-skinned house slave named Chloe. Their deep and instant connection fueled a love affair and inspired plans to escape their owner, Master Wilson, who claimed Chloe as his concubine.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 338
Unflinching and plainspoken, Tessa Swan is not your typical 18th-century woman. Born and bred on the Western Virginia frontier along with her five brothers, she is a force to be reckoned with. Quiet and courageous, Clay Tygart is not your typical 18th-century man. Raised by Lenape Indians, he returns a hero from the French and Indian War to the fort that bears his name, bringing with him Tessa's long-lost friend, Keturah, a redeemed Indian captive like himself. Determined to avoid any romantic entanglements as fort commander, Clay remains aloof whenever he encounters the lovely Tessa.

But when a violent betrayal leaves her injured with no place to hide, Camille must allow a mysterious stranger to come to her aid. Jonathan Gilchrist never wanted to inherit Kettering Hall. As a second son, he was content to work as the village apothecary. But when his brother’s death made him heir just as his father’s foolish decisions put the estate at risk, only the sale of a priceless possession -- a ruby called the Bevoy -- can save the family from ruin. But the gem has disappeared. And all trails lead to Iverness Curiosity Shop -- and the beautiful shop girl who may be the answer to his many questions.

Collis Huntington, railroad baron and self-made multimillionaire, is drawn to Arabella from their first meeting. Collis is married and 30 years her senior, yet they are well-matched in temperament, and flirtation rapidly escalates into an affair.

Great frontier story
I loved the detail and frontier life. I loved the characters. However, the ending was not fulfilling for what the story had built up to from the first.

Great Historical Romance
I enjoyed this book because of the story, but also because the narrator brought it to life! I was able to truly feel like I was in the moment the entire book. I imagined all of the scenarios and could see the characters clear as day! Well worth a credit! Can't wait to hear more from this author and narrator!

Loved this novel!
My first book by Laura Frantz and i’m hooked. Loved the character building and love ALL the characters. I especially loved how patient God was with her and her relationship with Ian. I was kinda hoping she’d end up with Captain Jack...but then they’d be unequally joked. But I loved the story!

Wow! Wow! Wow!
This is a roller coaster ride! Sometimes I loved it, sometimes I hated it, sometimes I wondered if the author had a mental condition. She doesn’t, she knows exactly what she is doing! In the end, I love, appreciate, and feel a better person having read it!

Captivating
This is definitely one of my favorite Laura Frantz books. The love story is so rich and true. Loved the Christian side and how Lael came to find peace with God through the love from Ian. Great story!!

Truly a Good Story :)
Would you listen to The Frontiersman's Daughter again? Why?
I enjoyed this historical fiction story set in Kentucky. My only complaint is the overuse of the word truly. By the end of the book, it made me laugh every time I heard it. Otherwise a great story. The narrator was too breathy for my liking but otherwise did a good job. Worth listening too and a great message, but would someone please count the number of times they hear, truly, and let me know:)

What did you like best about this story?
Overall great storytelling
Which character – as performed by Laura Jennings – was your favorite?
Ms. Jennings helped bring to life all of the various characters of the Kentucky frontier.
