Elizabeth Seckman Bella's Point

[Stelladiluce10]

In the book Bella's Point, it starts off a little slow.

After getting into the first few chapters, you will become hooked. It starts as this young woman who is a divorcee back in the 1800s. Her husband abusive, she leaves, starts anew on her brothers land. With the help of her mammy, Bella and Tessie (her mammy) struggle to make it through winter, and Bella does something so unladylike it's unbelievable! She visits a prison to buy herself a husband with the last gold in her pocket. Bella is a strong-willed woman, and always gets her way, or so she thinks... this will leave you wanting more and more after each chapter!

It's a wonderful book to read, it keeps you hanging, a mystery of the unknown... a great book to cuddle up on a cold winter's day to read. You won't want to put it down.

"Isabella Troy Stanley is a divorced, slave freeing pariah surviving in the shattered post Civil War south the only way a fallen debutante knows how. She heads to a Yankee prison and buys herself a husband."

"Jack Byron is the former Troy plantation stable boy and object of young Bella's affection. He rejected her then, and he's still not sold on the idea of marrying her now. Sure, she's pretty, but he remembers too well how even a glance in her direction got a man of his standing ridden out of town with a semi-friendly warning. No, Jack's more sensible now, not to mention he might still be betrothed to another woman.... It's complicated but to Bella it's simple: make Jack love her, and marry her, and live happily ever after. The plan seems to work, at least, until her secret is revealed."

That's the back of the book description. I must recommend this book to anyone and everyone! A little mystery, a little love, hard work, and planning goes a long way.

Thanks Elizabeth for selling me this book!
