An Uncommon Woman by Laura Frantz is an enthralling novel! Honestly, I couldn’t put it down!
Tessa lives on the family homestead. She enjoys working with her family on their homestead despite the loss of her father to the Indian's amid the turmoil on the frontier. Her brothers keep her busy as she helps her mother. At 25 years old, there are not many marriage prospects. Oh how Tessa longs to visit the big city - specifically, Philadelphia.
Clay has just returned from Philadelphia, where he was hailed as a war hero. Clay is ready to resume his duties at the Fort, and does not have any intention of finding love. But when his cook, Hester, plays matchmaker with her great niece....
This book is historical romantic fiction, set in the 1770's. You will be captivated by the story. For me, it was riveting and thought provoking! I recommend this work of fiction, even though some of the vocabulary was specific to the time period and a little more difficult to understand. Nonetheless, the story was an excellent, enjoyable read! I was given a free copy of An Uncommon Woman from the publisher for my honest review.
