"Dunaway's Crossing" by Nancy Brandon

I got this book for free in exchange for an honest review. I started reading it knowing absolutely nothing about the author or the plot. The story is set in Georgia during World War I. Will Dunaway returns from France badly injured and tries to re-build his life in Pineview, Georgia, while the state is battling an awful influenza outbreak. At the same time, in Savannah, Bea Dot Ferguson is trapped in an abusive marriage, and after losing her unborn baby, she travels to Pineview to get away from her husbnad and to help her pregnant cousin. Both women end up staying in a country home of Will Dunaway in order to avoid catching the influenza.

The book is beautifully written and the plot keeps you interested from the very first pages. I found myself immersed in the story and could not put it down. It is a story of survival, hope and love. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and hope that others will too.
