Review- The Captured Bride

             This series of the Mayflower Brides is so fun. I love the history and the family tree. The Captured Bride is a great story.

                This story captured my interest! It was a story set in an historical period I wasn't entirely familiar with so I learned from it, too. The main character, Mercy, is a strong woman with an unusual gift that makes her the perfect person to do a job not usually offered to women. She ends up in in some dangerous situations, having to trust people she normally wouldn’t. Her story has depth and involves other layered characters you get to know. There's suspense, intrigue, and romance. The different characters lead you into a deeper story. The Native American angle to it was very interesting and led me to more understanding of their role in our early history.  I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.
