I really enjoy getting collections from Barbour Books. They look so pretty. I'm doing something a little different and splitting two stories so each writer gets their own post. There were nine stories but I'm picking the two that I thought stood out in the book.
Love Brings Freedom in 9 Historical Romances
Journey along as nine historical women are about to make their escape from some of life's greatest challenges. Can their captive hearts be freed to dream, to dare, to love?
His Indentured Bride by Angela Breidenbach - Pennsylvania, 1774-1776
Leaving Scotland for a short indenture with her betrothed, Maire Gree's contract is sold when disaster strikes her kindly owner, and then extended through cruel circumstances. Can Kirk Lachlan's service in the American Revolution save her or will she lose love and freedom forever?
This story was the other unique story in the book. I will point out that I enjoyed the touch of Scottish brogue that ran through the story. It made it fun to read and helped it stand out. The plot was engrossing and moved at a good pace.
It was interesting to see these two together and they were already a couple at the beginning so the build up wasn't as big and grand, but overall it was still a good read.
So pick up your copy of The Captive Bride's Collection and enjoy some really great short stories! Happy Reading!
