Historical Romance with Strong Female Lead
Running Brook was kidnapped as an infant and raised by the Comanche until she was 16. Rescued and taken in by a Quaker couple, she's taught about God and learns to speak English. Two years later, the gentle Quaker man tracks down two families that lost infant girls who might be Running Brook. He enlists Captain Jeremy Grant and his friend Dusty to take Running Brook to Fort Worth to reunite with her family.
When the book begins, Running Brook is disguised as a boy and travels with the men to Fort Worth. Along the way, she and Dusty become easy friends, the Indian man reminding her of a childhood friend. She and Captain Grant clash during the trip, and her conflicting feelings for the hard man have her doubting his morals. When she arrives in Forth Worth, she meets a family who might be her own, but they carry secrets that put her in danger.
This was another great historical romance from Barbara Goss! She did a great job portraying the hardships faced by the Native Americans on reservations during that time period. Brook was a strong female lead, and held her own against the intrigue. I especially loved Maggie and Flora, both were motherly characters I could picture in real life. The writing is simple and straightforward, and contains a Christian message.
The narration was well done, Leon Nixon has a great voice and tone. He narrates evenly and not dramatically. I received a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.
