Customer Reviews

A great addition to a wonderful series

In a realistic account of American living in the early 1800s, the story of DeLanna Robinsohn and Andrew Tabor continues through their travels to a new home. Having married, the couple leave behind their childhood to start anew in a land of promise. The travels are not easy, and as the couple learn about one another, their new relationship is tested. This book is engaging and the characters are so lovable. The entire series is fantastic, and this book is no exception.

More good reading!

They've endured much as they go from Pennsylvania to Ohio and through all of this Nancy has kept the story enjoyable and interesting along with accurate historial reading. Keep the series going. I want to know what happens next!!!!

Great Series!!

Once you start the Apple Valley series, make sure that you have all of the books on hand because you'll want to read the next one as soon as you finish reading the one before! Note to Ms. Smith: Thank you and please get busy, I'm waiting for the rest of the series!

What covered wagon travel was really like.

Authentic Ohio history in the early 1800's. A continued story of DeLanna and Andrew (The Dare, and The Proposal). The reader is given the hardships and adventures of travel by Oxen and covered wagon. An eight week honeymoon that takes Del and Andrew from their homes in PA to the Ohio Firelands. The author delivers in each and every book of the series. Let's hope they just keep coming.

Great book!

DeLanna's story continues in this sequal to THE DARE and THE PROPOSAL. DeLanna and Andrew have married and decided to leave Pennsylvania to move west to Ohio. The journey is long and filled with hardship, but DeLanna and Andrew push on, determined to start a new life.
