A Hope Divided by Alyssa Cole
5.0
This was a great story of the Civil War from a southern perspective, as supporters of the Union. We really get a good idea of southern life from both a Confederate perspective as well as a supporter of The Union perspective. As well as how a free black woman, in our heroine, would feel in a society that cares little about who she is and more for what color she is.
Marlie and Ewan dance around their mutually quick love for each other, yet their banter, intelligence and care for one another jump off the page. Their story, set within the confines of war, was so well done. Ms. Cole is a rockstar to be able to make such a compelling love story in the midst of The War Between The States, and an interracial couple no less. Job well done. I loved it.
