### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Powerful historical fiction, realistic characters, familiar dynamics
  

*by C***C on Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2021*

This work of historical fiction by new author Nathan Harris, takes place just after the end of the Civil War, in a small town in Georgia.  The story primarily revolves around the recently freed brothers Prentiss and Landry, the farmer George that hires them, and his wife Isabelle.  I don't want to spoil the plot, so I'll just give my general thoughts:The pacing of the story is somewhat slow, but this also allows time for the nuances of the character's relationships to be fully fleshed out.  The slower pace of the story also seemed to fit with my mental image of the time period, so it didn't bother me much.  Just be prepared for a slower build, though it moves a bit more quickly about halfway through.Historical fiction is not usually my favorite genre, but I was impressed with how these characters seemed so familiar and relatable, while still fitting in with the time period in the story.  Harris was able to capture the tensions of family, relationships, and fear of change; that all still seem relevant today.  The brave person from a different background supporting people from another culture, despite what others may think of them, resonates in modern times as well.  Difficulty communicating in relationships also seems to transcend time, and I suspect many readers will find at least one dynamic that feels familiar to them.This was certainly impressive for a first book, as Harris seems to be great at creating realistic character dynamics and a powerful, emotional story.  I will look forward to reading more from Harris in the future.

    Such a great book
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2021*

This book was amazing. I read this book ravenously. I haven't read a 300 page book from start to finish in a day since high school. It is beautifully written with emotion and care. If you want civil war gay romance, murder, betrayal, and strong female characters, this book is for you. Absolutely wonderful.
