I'm actually torn between Julie Harmon, and Hank, of GAP CREEK (Robert Morgan) and Inman and Ada of COLD MOUNTAIN (Charles Frazier). Both couples are favorites because of their bravery, pluck, and self-sufficient attitudes, (even though Hank was a bit of a Mama's boy). For Hank and Julie, no matter the circumstances, they were a unit of common goals, driven by the challenges in front of them, determined to succeed, whether it meant only getting enough to eat for a day, or setting out for a better future by facing the unknowns of moving on.
I wished there could have been a future for Inman and Ada, but in the moments they had, from their initial brief encounter, to Inman's self imposed separation, bound by his duty to the war, they ultimately believed they'd be together. Both persevered through the most difficult of situations only because of that hope. Despite the tragic ending, their love was destined to last a lifetime.

Donna, I just discovered your books. I listen to audiobooks mostly. Did you ever think about changing up the person who reads the audiobook? I recently finished The Moonshiner's Daughter and loved Jesse. I went to start The Saints of Swallow Hill but I can't get Jesse out of my head!
