The Stolen Bride
Adam Fletcher’s fifth adventure picks up right where The Gypsy’s Curse left off —in the kitchen of the Topsail Tavern. After the initial shock has worn off about Santiago’s return, Adam and his father decide to go on a short errand together to New Bern to deliver a letter for Emmanuel. While they’re in town, they learn that Annabelle, the new bride of the recently-freed Martin family slave, Charles Jr., has gone missing.
Adam and his father are glad to try and help find her, but when they discover where she is and what has happened, it’s a race against the clock to secure her safety. The adventure will take father and son all the way to Boston to track down Will Martin, the only person who can intervene on Annabelle’s behalf. They soon find out that making it back to North Carolina with Will — along with some unexpected companions — was only half the battle.
The Stolen Bride is the fifth book in the Adam Fletcher Adventure Series of historical fiction novels. If you like fast-moving adventures, impetuous young heroes, suspense-filled plots, and a dash of romance, then you’ll love Sara Whitford’s entertaining series!

This might be my favorite installment in this series so far. I was a little disappointed by Santiago’s character, but then again, if he had been perfect in every way, that wouldn’t have been at all realistic. Still enjoying the slow burn of the light romantic subplots!
The racism was also well handled. It both suits our modern, anti-racism worldview and is true to the reality of the South in the 1700s.
My only real squabble at this point is with Adam. I understand that he’s matured a lot in the last few years, but his character was a bit too mature at times and wasn’t speaking like a twenty year old. I miss his more rash personality.

Adam Fletcher Adventure series
A fun series perfect for young adults and adult readers. Light reading on a rainy or Covid-19 isolation kind of day.
Fun historical fiction interwoven
amongst adventurous plots that are entertaining, with morals to each story.

Great imagination. A delight and a joy to read. By now I feel as though I could walk in Beaufort and recognise the buildings and people. You have brought it to life. Very little editing for my high school. Can't wait to start the next one!! Please keep them coming.

The whole Adam Fletcher series was really good for young adults. I'd recommend it for middle grades without hesitation. Good character development, a quick moving plot, and just enough adventure.
