{More about The Courier of Caswell Hall}

An unlikely spy discovers freedom and love in the midst of the American Revolution.
As the British and Continental armies wage war in 1781, the daughter of a wealthy Virginia plantation owner feels conflict raging in her own heart. Lydia Caswell comes from a family of staunch Loyalists, but she cares only about peace. Her friend Sarah Hammond, however, longs to join the fight. Both women’s families have already been divided by a costly war that sets father against son and neighbor against neighbor; a war that makes it impossible to guess who can be trusted.
One snowy night Lydia discovers a wounded man on the riverbank near Caswell Hall, and her decision to save him will change her life. Nathan introduces her to a secret network of spies, couriers, disguises, and coded messages—a network that may be the Patriots’ only hope for winning the war. When British officers take over Caswell Hall and wreak havoc on neighboring plantations, Lydia will have to choose between loyalty and freedom; between her family’s protection and her own heart’s desires.
As both armies gather near Williamsburg for a pivotal battle, both Lydia and Sarah must decide how high a price they are willing to pay to help the men they love.
Part of the American Tapestries™ series: Each standalone novel in this line sets a heart-stirring love story against the backdrop of an epic moment in American history. This is the fifth book in the series.

My review;  This is a story that takes place during the American Revolution. The American Revolution   was a fast changing  time in our history. This is about 2 women who are friends who  both are deeply moved by the war. Lydia Caswell discovers that choosing sides is not as easy as she thought it would be. A decision that she makes one night will change all that she holds dear. She is forced to choose between family and feelings that she has started to feel for someone, she has just met. What will she decide? Will she stay loyal to her heart or her family loyalty? I give this book a 5/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
