... Tory Widow by Christine Blevins, my March ER book. I'm really looking forward to it because I loved her first book Midwife of the Blue Ridge. Midwife is a misleading title for a great book, by the way. Ms. Blevins didn't choose that title, her publisher did.

Major excitement here! I'm getting The Tory Widow by Christine Blevins. I absolutely loved her first book, Midwife of the Blue Ridge and am very excited to be getting a copy of her second book. Thank you, ER!!!!!

I loved Midwife of the Blue Ridge. I noticed the title because I live in North Carolina and had recently revisited the Blue Ridge, but the title doesn't do justice to the scope of the book. I found it to be entertaining, informative, and hard to put down. I'm looking forward to The Tory's Wi ...

Thanks for the review of Midwife of the Blue Ridge. As an avid fan of the Outlander series, I think I will give this book a pass.

I recently came across a reccomendation for The Midwife of Blue Ridge by Christine Blevins. I heard about it through a forum for Outlander fans so I was hoping someone here could tell me a bit about it. I cannot find a copy of the book anywhere so before I take the extra step to get ahold ...

I finished Midwife of the Blue Ridge and must say that I had fun reading it. The only thing I didn't like about it was its title. It just didn't fit the book. I can't remember thinking that about a book in a very long time - that the title didn't match the book. I wil probably continue Th ...

Mint, I've done the same thing - that's how I ended up with a copy of Midwife of the Blue Ridge even though I told the author I could not guarantee I could get to it in a timely manner. I've also done that on some of the Bostick emails. I let the author know I had an interest, but my schedule ...
