Abby's Crossing by Darryl Harris, LDS Blog Tour & Giveaway
Fall 1862 --Following her husband’s tragic death, young widow Abby Butterfield Browett’s first responsibility is to her son. Her desire to provide a secure future for her child has led her to accept a proposal of marriage from Isaac, a man twice her age. In her heart, she knows that Isaac lacks the fire and zest for life that defines Abby, but her son will be cared for. Can she be happy with only that? Despite her reservations, Abby joins her fiancé on the journey to the Endowment House in Salt Lake City, unprepared for the challenges that begin soon after they embark. When their trouble turns dangerous, it is a group of rough frontiersmen that come to their aid. The incident provides Abby the excuse she needs to turn back and postpone the wedding—and in truth, she simply can’t forget the connection she felt with Scooter, the leader of their rescuers. But as hostilities arise between the local Indians and the white frontiersmen, Abby’s focus turns again to the safety of her son. When the young boy disappears following an attack, Abby disregards propriety and turns not to her fiancé for help, but to Scooter. In the face of unimaginable odds, the pair embarks on a quest to find Abby’s son, a journey that will test their courage and faith as never before . . .
My Review:
Abby's Crossing is all about a young window named Abby, her son and their journey they take to Salt Lake. This book is full of history, so if you love historical fiction that is heavy on the historical part, then you will enjoy this book. There is some action and of course the question of who Abby will choose to be with, her fiance or Scooter. I had a harder time getting into the story myself, but to each their own.
You can pick up your own copy via Amazon.
Happy Reading!!!
