An Uncommon Woman by Laura Frantz

This book was just amazing.  I have loved every book I have read from Laura Frantz.  What a talented author.  Her ability to describe her scenes to the best detail is absolute genius.

The book is written about 18th century America.  A time when people were settling new frontiers and facing elements, Indians and many, many human hardships and trials.  This book totally encompasses this time frame in history.  The well-researched book about a very strong frontierswoman, Tessa, brings to life her adventures as she helps to forge a way through the trials of Indian territory.

It is so hard to imagine living in this time when each day could bring the unexpected Indian raid, loss of life and family.

As she meets Clay Tygart, their romance is quiet and at first not to be acted upon in his calling as fort commander.  Yet, you can feel their attraction and it keeps you reading to see where it goes.

To watch the character Keturah be taken by Indians was heart wrenching.  But to see the woman she becomes was also fascinating.

Tessa was definitely a strong character, perfect for her situation and always ready to serve in anyway she can.  She always steps up to the needs each time.

I was so happy to be able to read such a well written, and detailed book.  It's depth kept me reading and loving every page of it.  It was full of adventure and action.  No dull moments!

I received a copy of this book from Revell Publishing.  All thoughts are my own.
