“A Rebel Heart” (Daughtry House) by Beth White

It was interesting to read about the war between the states in the eyes of the characters on both sides in this story. Although there were tragic war events that happened during this book, there were also some great moments and events. I loved Selah’s determination to keep up with her family plantation and family name despite the losses in their home. I liked the mystery and suspense element of this historical romance book.

Great characters and steady story line. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to read more in this series!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

About the Book:
Five years after the final shot was fired in the War Between the States, Selah Daughtry can barely manage to keep herself, her two younger sisters, and their spinster cousin fed and clothed. With their family’s Mississippi plantation swamped by debt and the Big House falling down around them, the only option seems to be giving up their ancestral land.

Pinkerton agent and former Union cavalryman Levi Riggins is investigating a series of robberies and sabotage linked to the impoverished Daughtry plantation. Posing as a hotel management agent for the railroad, he tells Selah he’ll help her save her home, but only if it is converted into a hotel. With Selah otherwise engaged with renovations, Levi moves onto the property to “supervise” while he actually attends to his real assignment right under her nose.

Selah isn’t sure she entirely trusts the handsome Yankee, but she’d do almost anything to save her home. What she never expected to encounter was his assault on her heart.
