Charlotte Beads had just lost a baby when her beloved husband John was sent to war – a war from which he never returned.

Unlike her friends, Susan and Abigail, she is left childless and questioning her place in the world, so she picks up an old dream and renews her studies to become a schoolteacher. She is ready to find work when she’s called out to Spokane to help Susan through a difficult time. Figuring she can find work as a teacher just as easily in Spokane as in Charleston, she heads west with no thought of going home again.

The journey is a difficult one, but along the way she meets three people who will change her life: Madeleine Ellis, who immediately becomes Charlotte’s guardian angel; a drunken Union soldier, who causes her nothing but trouble; and a friendly but painfully shy shopkeeper by the name of Connor Hayes….

Civil War Brides trilogy follows the journey of three women forged together in firm friendship through the fire of tragedy. The depth of emotion evoked by the circumstances they face and overcome is truly touching. And it is the quality of their friendship that shines the light in the darkness, leading each of them to a second chance love that they never imagined possible.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I am at heart a storyteller, and a helplessly 'hopeful' romantic. All of my books are clean Christian romance with great stories, wonderful characters, and delightfully happy endings!

Above all else, I love to write Mail Order Bride historical romance, but also enjoy baking in a little cozy mystery now and again to keep readers on their toes. So if you are ready for some good old Mail Order Brides of the West romance, or an adventurous American Mail Order Brides series, you will always discover an exciting historical western romance novella or short story to suit your taste.

I also have some free Mail Order Bride books for you. Just go to: http://pureread.com/terrigrace to download them for free.

All of my Mail Order Bride historical western romance Kindle Unlimited titles are free to read for Kindle Unlimited Subscribers.

This second book in the series, has a bit of romance in it, whereas Widow’s Hope had none.

Charlotte is one of the three friends this series is about. Donald had summoned her to come help his wife, Susan get through her despair and depression. In the meantime, Charlotte finds love and a new family. Connor was so kind and sweet. Loved his character ❤️
