Customer Reviews
Lydia
A good read.
Perfect follow-up
Lydia was the perfect follow-up to Hannah. The storyline continues from when the wagon train arrives to what life in a frontier town is like. I can’t imagine holding up all those skirts and petticoats for a 20 minute slog through the mud. Lydia comes into her own as the strong woman her older sister always knew she would be. There are twists and turns and dangerous mysteries to solve before love will find a way. And the menagerie continues. A good read.
