In the unstable colony of 1643 Virginia, two brothers marry twin sisters and together face life's challenges, family betrayal and the torment of Indian attack and war.
Part 3 continues the saga of the Bassett brothers and their twin wives as they face the greatest threats to their lives. After a slight mishap and reconciliation at the end of Part 2, the two couples experience a time of peace and happiness during the Christmas season. That peace is soon shattered during a Twelfth Night party when an unexpected, and unwelcome, guest arrives. Now they must find the strength to prevail against this foe from the brothers' past as he plots to ruin their lives. And finally, the climax, a historically correct event brings treachery and sorrow to Riverbreeze plantation, forcing the brothers to defend their home and protect their family from Indian attack and war.
Full of drama, excitement, humor, romance and details of early American life, the Riverbreeze series will appeal to a wide range of readers.
The final book in the Riverbreeze trilogy was just as well written and engaging as the first two. I was able to relate to the characters as they endured hardships and celebrated joys. The mystery of who had murdered the local midwife and natural healer was resolved as well as the person who assaulted her friend and lover. The story has a well wrapped up ending that is satisfying. This was an excellent series about the early colonial days in Virginia. It is worthy of a five star rating.
Consistent characters with strengths and weaknesses. The ending was a bit predictable but at one point in the book I was moved by emotion. The historical points were interesting and accurate.
