Severed Knot by Chyssa Bazos



I really didn't realize that Scottish and Irish Christians were indentured to plantations in the West Indies in the 17th century.  It becomes clear that the author did a lot of research for this book as the detail of the day-to-day lives of  the Scottish hero and Irish heroine make you feel as though you are there.  It was disturbing at times to read of the entitlement of some, while they abuse and mistreat others that had no control over their circumstances.  I was captivated by the building romance between Iain and Mairead, and with their resilient spirit that kept them going through many trials and tragedies.


Severed Knot will be published June 7, 2019 by BooksGoSocial.com.  I gave this book a rating of 4/5 stars.
