The Brickmaker's Bride Book Review

About the Book

Yearning for a fresh start, Ewan McKay travels with his aunt and uncle from northern Scotland to West Virginia, promising to trade his skills in the clay business for financial assistance from his uncle Hugh. Hugh purchases a brickmaking operation from a Civil War widow and her daughter, but it's Ewan who gets the business up and running again. Ewan seeks help from Laura, the former owner's daughter, and he feels a connection with her, but she's being courted by another man--a lawyer with far more social clout and money than Ewan. Besides, Ewan has resolved he'll focus on making the brickmaking operation enough of a success that he can become a partner in the business
and be able to afford to bring his sisters over from Scotland.

But when Hugh signs a bad business deal, all Ewan's hard work may come to naught. As his plans begin to crumble, Laura reveals something surprising. She and her mother may have a way to save the brickworks, and in turn Ewan may have another shot at winning Laura's heart. (Goodreads)



 My Review

This book was really hard for me to get into reading. The characters didn't stand out to me while the storyline was intriguing. I liked Ewan's side of the story more so than Laura's. The brick making aspect was the only thing that kept my attention and I had to push myself through this book. I really am not sure why but this book just did not suck me in. I wish I could say more but really I was just disappointed.
