The Rebel Bride (Daughter of the Mayflower, #10) by Shannon McNear is an enjoyable, enlightening read. Pearl McFarlane, lives in Tennessee and is called upon by the Confederacy to house Union soldiers that are prisoners of war and are wounded. Pearl is already taking care of her ailing father and younger brother so this request definitely puts a hardship on the McFarlanes. One of the Union soldiers, Josh Wheeler, has lost his hand in battle. Pearl finds herself attracted to him. But there are many hardships that the Union, the Confederacy, and the McFarlanes must endure. Necessities like food and able-bodied help are scarce. Everyone must do the best they can to help out. This historical work of fiction also has Christian undertones. I would highly recommend it to those who enjoy historical fiction.
