Praise For Lily's Plight (Harwood House #3)…
— Carolyn Martin
I have really LOVED this entire series! This is the third book and I highly recommend reading the first two books. By the third book, you have fully invested in the characters and are very interested in every aspect of their stories!

Out of the three Daughters of Harwood House books, Lily's Plight is my favorite.
Laity and Crawford address the dangers of battle and how families in the early settlements needed to work together to succeed. The struggle with faith, love, and family are woven throughout the novel. It was a beautiful conclusion to the Harwood family.
— Miss Pippi
This was a satisfying conclusion to an enjoyable trilogy set in the early days of Colonial settlement. An avid history buff, I thoroughly enjoyed the inclusion of the American militia’s struggle against invading French and Indians, the tense action between the Indians and homesteaders and the struggles our early colonists faced. I most enjoyed the deep emotional battles that Lily and John faced on an almost daily basis. They feel guilt, pain, reaffirmation of faith, and a myriad of other emotions. The authors have done an excellent job in writing a gripping historical page turner, filled with anxious moments and, ultimately, the peace and love that two people can find with God’s grace.
