In Oregon Discovery by Rachel Wesson, we meet Tilly and her friend, Fiona, who was her servant. This book has highs and lows. Lots of death, but also a reunion and a wedding. This book jumps a few years with the children in the previous book now in their teens and centers on Almanzo. Tilly is engaged to a much older man, Richard, that her father has chosen for her. The man is despicable and Tilly is determined never to marry him!
I enjoyed this book and look forward to finishing this series. Almanzo is a great character who has both sadness and happiness in his life in this book. My favorite part was when Fiona and Tilly were held at the Indian camp where Red Wing took care of them and where Tilly was called "Fire Daughter" because of her hot temper. This is an entertaining historical read I would recommend, but only after reading the previous books in this series.
(Karen's review, 5 stars)
Teaser from Kindle Loc. 84-86: "He believes women should look decorative. Our sole aim in life is to please our menfolk and produce an heir. Anything else is against God's wishes." Tilly's face screwed up as she repeated what her father had drummed into her for as long as she could remember.
