MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n It has been awhile since I read a book by Andrea Boeshaar so I had forgotten how much I enjoy her writing. Her characters came alive in “A Thousand Shall Fall’ and I felt like I was right there with them. Vivid imagery and a well-paced plot held my interest and brought my hatred of war to the surface.<\/p>\n Set in the Shedandoah Valley during the Civil War, the story quickly has its heroine Carrie Ann Bell witnessing a fierce battle between the Northern and Southern armies and being held (for her own protection) in the Yankee camp. A renewed acquaintance with the dashing Colonel Peyton Collier seems to be developing into something more but how can that ever work out?<\/p>\n The compelling story depicts life during the Civil War with all its drama, danger, violence, secrecy, and emotions yet is tempered with occasional humor and a sweet romance that ends well. As a fan of historical fiction, I was impressed by the historical accuracy as well as the author’s attempt to show both sides of the story fairly.<\/p>\n This book was provided for review by LitFuse Publicity.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n A story of love, hope, and healing set in the midst of the Civil War<\/strong><\/p>\n Nineteen-year-old Carrie Ann Bell is independent and spirited. The only thing she really fears are the Union soldiers fighting against her Confederate friends. When her youngest sister runs away from home, brave Carrie Ann is determined to find her and bring her back. Disguised as a soldier, she sets off\u2013only to find she\u2019s fallen into the hands of the enemy.<\/p>\n Her childhood friend Confederate Major Joshua Blevins has warned her against these Yankees: they\u2019re all devils, ready to inflict evil on unsuspecting young women. When Colonel Peyton Collier arrests her for her impersonation of an officer, it seems to confirm all her fears.<\/p>\n Soon, though, she finds herself drawn to the handsome, gallant colonel. He rescued her, protected her, and has been every inch the gentleman. Carrie Ann discovers that her foe has become her ally\u2013and more than that, someone she could love. But the arrival of Joshua in the Union camp as a spy will test her loyalties. Will she protect someone who has been like family or be loyal to this stranger to whom she wants to offer her heart? When her world is being torn apart around her, whom should she trust?<\/p>\n Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, A Thousand Shall Fall<\/em> is framed around compelling characters and a very romantic setting in Virginia\u2019s Shenandoah Valley. Andrea Boeshaar\u2019s extensive research guarantees historical accuracy and romance genre enthusiasts and Civil War buffs alike will enjoy the Christian perspectives on actual historical events.<\/p>\n Learn more and purchase a copy.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n Find out more about Andrea at http:\/\/www.andreaboeshaar.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Andrea is celebrating the release of\u00a0A Thousand Shall Fall<\/em> with a Kindle Fire giveaway!<\/strong><\/p>\n One grand prize winner will receive:<\/strong><\/p>\n Enter today by clicking the icon below.
