Journey into the Shenandoah Valley of 1816 where...
With Very Little Left of the Family Farm, Lily May be Forced into a Loveless Marriage.
Captain McAlister “Mac” Albright has purchased land in the Shenandoah Valley. However, the land belongs to Lillyanna Laughlin—or so she erroneously thinks. Mac sets her straight and despite a poor start, the two become friends. . .if only he were financially stable to offer her more.
When Lily’s life is threatened and his whole future goes up in flames, Mac truly becomes a man without means, and Lily is forced to make the impossible choice between a loveless marriage with a man twice her age or the man who has shown her what true love could be. How can she choose between love and economic security? Her family is depending on her. Is her heart destined to break?
Journey into Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley of 1816 where a woman’s dreams and future happiness are on the line.

My Review
In the Shenandoah Valley is the first book by Andrea Boeshaar I have read. I will say it won't be my last. Was really. Good. Loved the characters the book was well written.
Poor Lily after the death of her father to raise her 2 brothers and put in the hands of a caregiver. Who I might add is old enough to be a grandfather. Threatening her she has to marry him or leave what is hers. A stranger comes to town and he steps in to try to help her. Captain Mac Albright has things going on in his life doesn't have time for relationships. Problem arises when Lily finds out her caregiver has sold her land to the Captain without her knowledge. What is she to do? She needs to find her fathers will to see what her father really did. This book is full of surprises and adventure. At times I was even laughing. I was glad to read some inspirational in it as well.
