Tidewater Bride by Laura Frantz is a fascinating historical novel. It is well-written with developed characters. The pace starts off a little slow, but it soon picks up. I soon found myself engrossed in the story. It is rich with historical details. It is obvious that the author did her research. I found myself wanting to know more about the time-period and area after reading Tidewater Bride. It was interesting learning about the Powhatan people. The romance between Selah Hopewell and Xander Renick developed slowly which I appreciated. I enjoyed the interactions between Selah and Xander. Tidewater Bride is more than a historical romance. The story has the tobacco brides searching for husbands, illness in the area, merchandise being arriving and being sold, Powhatan nations concerns, a man determined to win Selah�s hand, and much more. I thought it was interesting when colonist children and Powhatan children were exchanged (a peace gesture). The Hopewell family took in an adorable girl named Watseka while Selah�s brother went to life with the Powhatan�s. One little incident could have caused an uprising. The descriptive writing brought the story to life. Christian elements are beautifully woven into the story. Laura Frantz crafted a multifaceted, engaging story. The story has history, romance, suspense, and intrigue. I look forward to reading her next enriching novel. Tidewater Bride is a fascinating historical tale with a bevy of brides, Indian injustices, swamp sickness, a missing moppet, and a rare romance.

Mailorder Bride Genre
Tidewater Bride by Laura Frantz
Mailorder brides is a very favorite genre of mine, so I thought I would love this new book by Laura Frantz. But this was not the case, I could not get into the book, let alone love it. I have read other books by Laura Frantz, and love them, but this book did not work for me. I will read again in a few months and see if my opinions change, if so, I will amend this review.
I received a complimentary copy from #netgalley and #revell with no obligation to post a review.

Classic Frantz
Set in the 1630s James Towne, Virginia Colony, Tidewater Bride tells of the shortage of women and at times the shortage of peace within the area. While originally welcomed by the Naturals, the colonists had done much to lose their friendship and respect, not the least of which was to encroach on their land. While there were good people who sought to establish relationships with, to learn from, and to live in peace with the Naturals, there were others who demonstrated hostility and disrespect, sometimes even towards their fellow colonists. Frantz's latest novel, set with this backdrop, is filled with romance, adventure, and a bit of mystery. As always she completely draws her readers into the story, has them hanging on every word, and leaves them anxious for her next offering.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of Tidewater Bride from Revell via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
