Rebellious Heart {Review}

 I have to say that this was one of my favorite books to read!  I couldn't put it down!  In Rebellious Heart, Jody Hedlund does a great job of keeping your attention with a story full of suspense and romance.  I've read and enjoyed a few of Jody's books, but this one was definitely my favorite!  The story is set in the revolution era, so if you enjoy that time period along with a great story, you will love this book too.  Even if you don't particularly love that I era, I still highly recommend reading Rebellious Heart!

From the back cover:
Massachusetts, 1763
A Love That Would Shape History Forever
Because she's a woman, higher learning was always closed to Susanna Smith. But her quick mind and quicker tongue never back down from a challenge. And she's determined to marry well, so she'll be able to continue her work with the less fortunate.

Growing up with little to his name, poor country lawyer Benjamin Ross dreams of impacting the world for the better. When introduced to the Smiths he's taken by Susanna's intelligence and independent spirit, but her parents refuse to see him as a suitor for their daughter.

When the life of a runaway indentured servant is threatened, Susanna is forced to choose between justice and mercy, and Ben becomes her unlikely advisor. But drawing closer to this man of principle and intellect lands her in a dangerous, secret world of rebellion and revolution against everything she once held dear.

I received this book for free for review from Bethany House Publishers.

Blessings,
