The Bargain: An American Historical Romance Novel

Award-winning author Irene Bennett Brown's classic, compelling story of love and sacrifice in the face of adversity. Clare Hobb is plagued by the strict boundaries her iron-handed uncles impose at Hobbs' Mills, the family conclave. She's in love with Larkin Wade, a handsome farmer they disdain. When an unfortunate accident takes the life of one of her uncles, the remaining brothers blame Clare's mentally deficient father, forcing the family to make the tough decision to leave the only home they've ever known. Guilt that she might have helped prevent the accident brings Clare to painfully end her romance with Larkin and pledge full attention to her family. With ties broken, Larkin departs for the west. Would a new life in Kansas where Larkin has gone ahead be the answer? Will he wait? Is it possible, ever, to bargain true love away? "Irene Bennett Brown has put heart, soul, and historical detail in her story of love and sacrifice in 19th century New Hampshire and Kansas. Read The Bargain." Lucia St. Clair Robson, bestselling author of The Shadow Patriot "The Bargain is a powerful novel about moral and spiritual courage, and offers radiant insight into how lives are won or lost by the choices we all make.
