First Line Friday #9

Happy Friday!

This week I’m featuring:

“It was unbecoming to be jealous of a dear friend’s marriage.”

I have been looking forward to reading this one since I first heard about it! I have heard that it can be pretty dark, but that hasn’t turned me off of it. Shannon McNear is an excellent writer and I always get lost in her books!

 

About the book:

Fiction Based on Strange, But True, History

True, riveting stories of American criminal activity are explored through a unique stories of historical romantic suspense. Collect them all and be inspired by the hope that always finds its way even in the darkest of times.

Based on real events beginning in 1797 — Rachel Taylor lives a rather mundane existence at the way station her family runs along the Wilderness Road in Tennessee. She attends her friend’s wedding only to watch it dissolve in horror has the groom, Wiley Harpe, and his cousin become murderers on the run, who drag their families along. Declaring a “war on all humanity,” the Harpes won’t be stopped, and Ben Langford is on their trail to see if his own cousin was one of their latest victims. How many will die before peace can return to the frontier?
