Synopsis

A Daughter's Promise. A Nation at War. A Family's Struggle to Survive.

I was fourteen the day Papa rode off to fight for the Union, leaving Mama-frail, frightened, and penniless-with four children to feed. That was the day I became the one who had to hold us together.

When Mama took sick, I made a vow: I would never let us be separated. I would never let Mary go to the asylum. No matter what.

But promises don't put food on the table. And the streets of Civil War-era Cincinnati are no place for a girl with nothing but grit, hope, and the weight of her word.

Motty's Vow is a powerful women's Civil War novel and a deeply emotional coming-of-age historical fiction storyinspired by true events. Set against the backdrop of 1860s Ohio, it tells the story of a resilient young woman who must fight to protect her family in the shadow of war, illness, and silence.

With rich period detail, unforgettable characters, and a voice that echoes long after the last page, this is historical fiction with a strong female protagonist-perfect for readers who love family survival stories, resilient women in history, and historical fiction for women inspired by real life.

Includes a Book Club Guide with discussion questions, historical background, and more.

Perfect for fans of Lisa Wingate, Kristin Hannah, and readers who know the hardest promises are the ones made before you realize what they'll cost.
