A courageous colonial spy. A daring British captain. Will they risk it all to win at love?
At the height of the Revolutionary War, Tyra MacGregor is successful at thwarting the British Army with her colonial spy efforts. But her sleuthing ways come to a screeching halt when Captain Donahue “Hugh” Morgan puts her under house arrest. Hugh is intrigued by this courageous spy the natives call “War Woman.” She’s more daring than most men and is intelligent in defending her convictions. Even more impressive to Hugh is the strength of Tyra’s unshakeable faith in God. When Tyra saves his life during an attack, Hugh vows to return the favor. Before he can intervene, however, she is caught by his superior officer and imprisoned. Soon Hugh’s honor, faith, country, and love are all on the line. Can he risk it all to gain everything?
This is my idea of great historical fiction. In addition to a compelling story, I learned some things about the Revolutionary War, the British, and the local Indians....I highly recommend this historical novel. You will get a sense of what the war was like and you will learn some history. The characters are well developed and believable. The historical accuracy of the book is great and the romance well done.
A delightful, yet adventure-filled, story of life on a rice plantation during the closing year of the American Revolution.....A great historic fictional look at a 1781 piece of the war, and the hearts of lives it touched.
For Love or Country is a great book to read. There is no part of the book that is over powering such as romance, war, or even spy games. They fit together making the characters and the story come to life in your mind as you are reading. This book is hard to put down once you start and one that can be read more than once. It is hard to not write more however I try and not give spoilers. I will say this book is well worth the 5/5 stars.
This is a great historical fiction novel filled with faith, intrigue and love. I enjoyed reading about tara and hugh as they figured out their feeling and about their motives and beliefs about the revotionary war. Tara is a brave character with a strong belief in her position in the war and is not afraid to help others depite the consequences to her self. This is an excellent novel! I can't wait for the next novel in the series.
