Prudence (Bride Brigade Book 7) Kindle Edition

by Caroline Clemmons (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 158 ratings
Prudence Lynch’s beloved grandmother trained her in midwifery and in folk medicine. Always ostracized because they were different—until someone needed their help—they lived in poverty at the edge of a tiny Virginia village where rumors plagued them. After Granny’s death, Prudence leaves for Richmond. There, Prudence is fortunate to be chosen to accompany Lydia Harrison to Tarnation, Texas. She believes she’s left trouble and gossip behind to establish her healing business and begin a new life. Doctor Riley Gaston wants a wife and children. He’s threatened to move from Tarnation to seek a wife, but he would never actually leave the community he loves. One of the young women Lydia brings home mesmerizes Riley. That is, until he learns her so-called profession is folk healing, which is he views as dangerous as it is worthless. Prudence is as stubborn as Riley. Trouble causes them to reconsider their opinions. Is their change of heart too late?

    5.0 out of 5 stars "Our Time to be Born and Our Time to Die"
    Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2017

    1873 Tarnation, Texas. Lydia Harrison and Sophie Gaston have traveled to Virginia to find "women of good character desiring to go west for the purpose of marriage". They call it the bride brigade; there are lots of single men in the small town wanting to marry, but not many single women. Lydia is a widow with a ranch, large house, and money to spare. Lydia loves Adam, the town's sheriff, and hopes to somehow convince him he cannot live without her as his wife. He feels unworthy because she is so much wealthier than him. Silly man!

    Lydia's best friend, Sophie, has a son, Riley, who is the only doctor in town. On the trip to Texas, Sophie gets to know Prudence Lynch, a woman trained in midwifery and herbal healer. Prudence is very attracted to Riley, but he is not encouraging. Riley feels "folk healing" is hogwash, and is sure Prudence is more likely to hurt someone than help.

    Two very interesting love stories, and lots of information about life, medicine, and justice in the nineteenth century, makes for a enjoyable few hours of reading. This series by Author, Caroline Clemons, is so much fun to escape into; there is trouble and hardship, but the simple lives infused with love and family leave you with a feel-good glow!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A natural herbalist/midwife and a medical doctor ....can they agree to work together and find love with each other?

    Caroline Clemmons never fails to deliver quality stories, and Prudence , Bride Brigade #7, is no exception. Prudence is a poor young woman from a tiny village in Virginia. She has trained to be a natural healer and a midwife with her Grandmother. She is chosen by Lydia to go to Tarnation, Texas, as part of the "bride brigade" to meet eligible bachelors. Sophia, Lydia's friend has come to Richmond with her because she hopes her son, a local physician, will choose one of the young women whom Lydia has 'collected' to take home to Tarnation since there are no eligible ladies for the bachelors there. Trouble follows Prudence to Tarnation, Texas, and Dr Gaston, Sophie's son, is put off by Prudence being a healer using herbs and tinctures. Gold, robbers/kidnappers, arguments from stubborn bachelors are just some of the obstacles to happiness for Prudence and Lydia. As this is the final Bride Brigade novel, I was both thrilled and sad to see it available. This entire series was extremely enjoyable.

    this author is in my top 20...first time i read these was 2017 they were in kindle worlds i think in 2022 the kindle worlds were done away with and these were re-released according to ms clemmons. There are some very small changes BUT what really gets my goat so to speak is the typos that im pretty sure were not in the first releases hence the 4 stars.

    I' ve read every book in the series and enjoyed each one..It WA's refreshing not reading about the sexual encounters of the characters. One of the books included a love scene tastefully done.

    I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this series but I am so sad this is the last one. But what a story two romances both Prudence and finally Lydia get their man, but not without a few issues here and there, of course Dr Gaston wanted things his way but Prudence sticks to her guns. Adam and Lydia have been attracted to each other through every book and Adam fought the attractions thinking he is not good enough. It's a must read and ties up this series very well.

    This one is a ‘two-for’. The one story which carried right through them all being the second.
    Sometimes a lot more than a subtle nudge is needed to push two people together. This was certainly the case with these couples. But we all love a happy ending, so you’ll be satisfied here. I even had a tear or two, all said and done. Thanks for 7 satisfying reads.
