Mart review

Loved the. Narration of this book

Loved the setting of the 1800 s. And in Williamsburg too

A mystery worth digging into

Intriguing storyline by Ms. Pagels. She weaves together a story of war, yellow fever, murder, slavery into a beautiful story of redemptive hearts. She keeps you guessing on how everything can possibly work out. But in the surprising end she has given a happily ever after that leaves you smiling.

Wonderful historic, romantic fiction

Dogwood Plantation is a wonderful story of hope, love, forgiveness and redemption in a time of turmoil for the American people during the War of 1812. The audio version of Dogwood Plantation far exceeded my expectations. With Aletha Duncan’s talent in portraying the numerous characters of Carrie Fancett Pagels’ outstanding novel, the end result is excellent. I highly recommend this audiobook to everyone who enjoys being transported back in time through historic, romantic fiction.

A skillfully told story

A skillfully told story with a historical detail and a delicate touch! Full of unexpected turns of events and well-defined characters, it is shaped to encourage love, hope, and faith in the Lord.

Loved this book

I enjoyed listening to the Audible version of this book. A very talented narrator, Aletha Duncan did a wonderful job telling this excellent tale. She included a cute southern accent which was very fun to hear. The very nice voice made for a very entertaining listening time as she effortlessly changed voices among the various characters she portrayed.
The author has quite a way with words and the descriptions of the scenes you are reading about. Makes you feel as though you were there experiencing everything personally. This story of this southern plantation was an excellent read. Cornelia was a fun and lively character who deals with many trials and sadness as the story develops.

The story has suspense and lots of trials and has many twists and turns. It is an excellently written historical fiction. There are sensitive parts to this book but carefully developed. There are Christian themes in this book. I enjoyed it very much.

I received a complimentary copy of this Audible book from the author. All thoughts are my own.
