Love's Pursuit by Siri Mitchell is the 2nd in her Against All Expectations Collection series of f/m historical romances, this one set in a 1640s Massachussetts Puritan community where a young woman finds herself unexpectedly juggling multiple suitors, free courtesy of Christian publisher Baker's Bethany House imprint.
We've previously gotten the 1st in series free, but the entire series seems to consist of unrelated stories that don't share a theme besides being historical romances, unless they somehow involve ancestors/descendents of each novel's characters or the like, so this seems like it should be perfectly readable standalone.
Currently free, probably just for one day @
B&N (may also drop in the
UK),
Amazon UK (slated to drop in the
main store),
Kobo &
iTunes &
Google Play (all available to Canadians), and
ChristianBook (ADE-DRM ePub available worldwide).
Description
In the small Puritan community of Stoneybrooke, Massachusetts, Susannah Phillips stands out both for her character and beauty. She wants only a simple life but soon finds herself pursued by the town's wealthiest bachelor and by a roguish military captain sent to protect them. One is not what he seems and one is more than he seems.
In trying to discover true love's path, Susannah is helped by the most unlikely of allies, a wounded woman who lives invisible and ignored in their town. As the depth, passion, and sacrifice of love is revealed to Susannah, she begins to question the rules and regulations of her childhood faith. In a community where grace is unknown, what price will she pay for embracing love?
