An Uncommon Woman by Laura Frantz

5.0

Once again, Laura Frantz brings to life the early American frontier, introducing the Swan family and Colonel Clay Tygart. Tessa has spent all of her life dodging Indian arrows, haunted by the capture of a dear friend and the death of her father. She longs for a peaceful life beyond the wilderness that was all she knew. Clay Tygart, raised by Lenape Indians and Philadelphia Quakers, he takes command of the fort bearing his name, quickly earning everyone’s respect.
Both determined not to marry, they become an unlikely couple. But when Tessa and her brothers suddenly face grave danger, their love and endurance is tested. They set out on a quest to be rid of the frontier dangers and recover a life dear to Tessa.
Beautifully woven together, An Uncommon Woman will have you turning pages from the very first line about a desired petticoat, to the last page leading into a new life.
