In God Is Our Trust (Free Men and Dreamers, #5)

by L C Lewis

As with all of the books in this series, I enjoyed the story and the characters so much! I have grown to love the characters and feel like I know them so well. This is why I love reading a series, because of the great connection you feel for the story's characters. Once again, Laurie draws you in from the first chapter. I felt like I had never even left this time period. We were there by Hannah's side as she is loving and supporting her brave and devoted husband Jed. Then we are in England as Daniel tries to reunite with his estranged father, Earl Spencer. Frannie, spunky as ever, is forging ahead with her life, despite still missing her one true love Arthur. *sigh* I could go on and on.

I love historical fiction novels. Laurie has done unbelievable research on this time period of the War of 1812. I learned so much, and grew to appreciate this great nation even more. With Laurie writing such dynamic and lovable characters, you never feel like what you are reading is "dry" history. The storyline is so richly woven into the true history, that all you have left is this incredible story. I would advise you though, read the books in order or you will be terribly lost. Some series can be read in any order, but not this one.
