But neither Sarah nor Mac can predict the challenges they will meet in a French colony or on the untamed frontier.

“This series books by Lyn Cote caused me all kinds of trouble; I had trouble putting each of the four books down in order to get some sleep! Her novels are so well written and researched they are a pleasure to read. I read all four in less than a week.”

“Totally engrossing and believable. Adversity, intrigue, love and hate all flowing seamlessly in these early Americans.”
