Summary: "McKenna's Bride" is the story of every wife.
Review: "McKenna's Bride" is the story of every wife who loves her husband and wants to save her marriage. I've been married to the same wonderful, infuriating, adorable man for 38 years. Some years were easy, some were harder, but I believe in marriage as I believe in love.The day I stop working at our relationship is the day it starts to crumble. I hope the reader will believe in this family and the love they have to share.

Summary: Amazing woman!
Review: Caitlin defied her family to marry Shane McKenna. He left for America to begin a home and was to send for Caitlin. Shane was not heard from for eight years. Caitlin finally received the letter to join him in America. There was nothing left for her in Ireland so she went, taking with her Derry, her sister's child.

The man who meets Caitlin in Missouri is nothing like the Shane she had married. He has a son from another woman, a feud with his neighbors, and accuses Caitlin of abandoning him! To top it off, Shane believes Caitlin has had lovers and that Derry is really her daughter.

Trust does not come easy, but both were willing to try to make the marriage work. But that is hard to do while someone is trying to kill Shane.

***Caitlin had more fight in her than I thought possible. I admired her all through the book. Great book with adventure between the pages.***

Review: Ms. French uses words like an artist uses a brush and paints. She creates intricate plots and complex characters, setting them all among the beautiful Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake. She's an extremely tallented writer! You won't be disappointed.

Summary: EXCELLENCE ALL AROUND!
Review: One of the better writers - bar none!
A gripping story of wounded love and broken trust.
Caity brought about the healing of Justice and love to the children. And eventually forgiveness for McKenna. A true womanly spirit willing to make her marriage work.

McKenna developed a strong, fighting spirit to survive the harsh living conditions that he had not been born into. He overcame his misunderstandings to finally be able to acknowledge his love.
A love he was afraid to admit to - afraid of the vulnerability of love.

I loved the family ties of Justice McKenna, Gabriel Larocque and Mary Rouge and their interaction with McKenna and his family.
And especially how Derry confused Shane McKenna and yet won his love. Then to have Shane sacrifice his buckskin, Cherokee for his family was especially moving.

this book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and please Ms. French, can we follow the McKenna family and have a story for Justice????
Add this book to your library - you won't be sorry!
