Can a religious separatist and an opportunistic spy make it in the New World?

Mary Elizabeth Chapman boards the Speedwell in 1620 as a Separatist seeking a better life in the New World. William Lytton embarks on the Mayflower as a carpenter looking for opportunities to succeed - and he may have found one when a man from the Virginia Company offers William a hefty sum to keep a stealth eye on company interests in the new colony.

The season is far too late for good sailing and storms rage, but reaching land is no better as food is scarce and the people are weak. Will Mary Elizabeth survive to face the spring planting and unknown natives? Will William be branded a traitor and expelled?

This is a good book for late night listening because it gets my attention and keeps it! I have tried to limit myself to only a few chapters at a time....I failed miserably...I was enjoying it too much to close it down. I don't sleep well at night so this was perfect for me. The house is quiet and my body is ready for rest but my mind will not shut off.. It is at times such as these that I reach for a good book. I have had several eye surgeries, thus, how wonderful it was to pick up "my book" and relax! The Mayflower Bride keeps me wanting more. I'm ready for the next book in the series.

Bring on the Mayflower!!!

This is excellent if you like Historical Sagas. There are too many characters in the beginning but if you hang in, it becomes very interesting.

As a romance, the conflict between Mary Elizabeth and William does not exist. The tension comes about in the last 45 minutes of the book. The spiritual conflict is weak. But the author does show the love of God for all, the impotence of remaining non-judgmental, and forgiveness. The historical content took over the first part of the book.

Sarah Zimmerman as narrator didn’t help the pacing because her tone stays the same all the way through.

Excellent

The historical aspect of this book is very interesting, but it feels like every other paragraph is filled with scripture or prayer.

Great narrator, so-so story

The book helped me to understand more of what the pilgrims went through to settle in America. It also was encouraging spiritually

Very very good and interesting

Not for me. I’m not a fan of romance novels, but if it’s your genre, this may be for you. I liked the narration

Too much romance, not enough historical details

Wonderful Performance!

This is an absolutely phenomenal book! I love that the author obviously did her homework and read the diaries of William Bradford.

Although I knew most of what happened to the colonists, it was so much more heartbreaking and yet so very rewarding to read about their struggles and victories in a novel.

Truly, other than the Bible, this is the best book I've read in a long time. I'm very much looking forward to reading the rest of the books in this series!

Absolutely phenomenal!
