Sensory-rich descriptions bring the landscape to life. "In An Uncommon Woman, author Laura Frantz transports readers to a setting she has mastered, the eighteenth-century mountain frontier. Laura Frantz is a Christy Award winner and the ECPA bestselling author of eleven novels, including The Frontiersman's Daughter, Courting Morrow Little, The Colonel's Lady, The Lacemaker, and A Bound Heart. But when circumstances force Clay's hand-and heart-the stage is set for one very private and one very public reckoning. Determined to avoid any romantic entanglements as fort commander, Clay remains aloof whenever he encounters the lovely Tessa. Raised by Lenape Indians, he returns a hero from the Seven Years' War to the fort that bears his name, bringing with him Tessa's long-lost friend, Keturah, who disappeared from the settlement years earlier. Quiet and courageous, Clay Tygart is not your typical eighteenth-century man. Born and bred on the western Virginia frontier along with her five brothers, she is a force to be reckoned with. "Peopled with characters as resilient and compelling as the terrain they inhabit, An Uncommon Woman is an engaging story that had me up late turning pages."- Lori Benton, Christy Award-winning author of The King's Mercy *** Unflinching and plainspoken, Tessa Swan is not your typical eighteenth-century woman.
