About the book: 

Bestselling Author Judith Miller Debuts Historical Series Set in West Virginia
Yearning for a fresh start, Ewan McKay travels with his aunt and uncle from northern Scotland to West Virginia, promising to trade his skills in the clay business for financial assistance from his uncle Hugh. Hugh purchases a brickmaking operation from a Civil War widow and her daughter, but it's Ewan who gets the business up and running again. Ewan seeks help from Laura, the former owner's daughter, and he feels a connection with her, but she's being courted by another man---a lawyer with far more social clout and money than Ewan. Besides, Ewan has resolved he'll focus on making the brickmaking operation enough of a success that he can become a partner in the business and be able to afford to bring his sisters over from Scotland.
But when Hugh signs a bad business deal, all Ewan's hard work may come to naught. As his plans begin to crumble, Laura reveals something surprising. She and her mother may have a way to save the brickworks, and in turn Ewan may have another shot at winning Laura's heart.

My Review:
Judith Miller has done a great job weaving together a story set after the Civil War in 1868.  Many homes experienced some sort of loss, and the years after that war would have been quite trying.  I love Laura's spirit and how she is involved with the brickyard.  The role of women was seen so differently back then, and Laura's character brought a lot of life to the story.  It was eye-opening to read about all the hardships they faced in the aftermath of the Civil War.  Many times we just read about an event, but don't pause to think about all the changes and hardships people would of gone through during such times.  Stories like this one, make us think.  This is a great new series to pick up and add to your library!
