I thoroughly enjoyed this very detailed story. I was quite impressed with the book and I loved the story.
It is 1754 in Acadie which is modern day Nova Scotia. The English and the French were fighting over land. Sylvie and her family were caught in the middle of this conflict.
What would you do if all that you knew just disappeared? Sylvie loved her home. She expected to live and die there. She couldn't imagine any other place to be as magical as the orchards she cared for.
Who was the enemy? Who was your friend? This was the life for Sylvie and her family. Why was she so attracted to William Blackburn? He was a British Army Soldier who threatened everything she loved.
I knew nothing of this actual conflict. I enjoy reading historical fiction. But it is amazing when I learn about real events and actual history.
I was given the opportunity to be on a author's review team for this book.
