Love's Reckoning | Laura Frantz
2 posts | 2 read | 9 to read
On a bitter December day in 1785, Silas Ballantyne arrives at the door of master blacksmith Liege Lee in York, Pennsylvania. Just months from becoming a master blacksmith himself, Silas is determined to finish his apprenticeship and move west. But Liege soon discovers that Silas is a prodigious worker and craftsman and endeavors to keep him in York. Silas becomes interested in both of Liege's daughters, the gentle and faith-filled Eden and the clever and high-spirited Elspeth. When he chooses one, will the other's jealousy destroy their love? In this sweeping family saga set in western Pennsylvania, one man's choices in love and work, in friends and enemies, set the stage for generations to come. "Love's Reckoning" is the first entry in The Ballantyne Legacy, a rich, multi-layered historical quartet from talented writer Laura Frantz, beginning in the late 1700s and following the Ballantyne family through the end of the Civil War.

The first half was better and the second half was forced. I appreciate that this Christian author tried to broach tough topics that many Christians wish not to talk about.

#recommendsday This superb early-American historical is my pick for today. Rife with secrets, betrayal, and romance, LOVE'S RECKONING is a well-written family drama that hit all the right notes for me. Loved it!
