![]() Thank you Netgalley and Simon & Schuster for the advanced copy for my honest review!Ĭharlotte’s journey is heartbreaking – so alone in the world, and only because she is a woman without a dowry and without an ability to get a real job because of her place in society. After a disastrous event with a man at a party that could wreck her family’s reputations (particularly her sister’s), she is being forced to leave England on the bride ship to the New World and start a new life. Synopsis: In 1860s England, Charlotte is considered a spinster in her 20s as she has no dowry and no real prospects of marriage. This was a very scary journey, young women leaving all the comforts of home to a new world – where freedom and new beginnings is finally possible. ![]() This includes the British bride ships to North America – specifically to Canada. ![]() There is always an era of history that I am not familiar with that I want to learn more about when I decide on a historical fiction. ![]()
