Wolf Den Hollow Review
My Review
I would give this book 100 stars if I was able to. Rarely does a book affect me like this one has. The characters became members of my family and I experienced what they did, eating with them,sorrowing with them experiencing new life experiences for the first time,being filled with joy and incredible
happiness when they where.
When I finished the book I realized the author had an important story to tell and though this book is fiction it is based on meticulously researched historical records kept by her family and what really happened in their life's journey.
The emotion I felt while reading this was incredible , I could barely put the book down once starting it and it touched a deep spot in my heart bringing me to tears more than once.
You are going to love this historical romantic fiction. I highly recommend it. Published October 6th 2020 by She Writes Press I was given a complimentary copy of this book. Thank you. All opinions expressed are my own.

GoodReads Summary
It's the dead of winter, and Sila, a bewitching Cherokee teenager, has just fled her marriage to a brutal drunk. Desperate for work, she finds herself knocking on the door of a mill office in the Missouri Ozarks. There she meets the handsome owner, Charley Barclay. Despite the fact that Sila and Charley have virtually nothing in common and thirty years between them, a spark ignites. Their passionate love affair quickly intensifies, and for Charley, there is no going back to his loveless marriage—especially after Sila is with child. They marry, and his empire expands as they face tragedy and treachery along the way. Just as their lives seem perfect, Charley falls victim to cancer. Sila's devastation is compounded by the onset of the Great Depression. She loses her inheritance and is faced with losing her home. As her situation grows increasingly dire, Sila—determined to protect herself and her family—is forced to make a desperate decision. Inspired by a true story, and replete with natural healing, glimpses of the logging boom, and heartbreaking drama, Wolf Den Hollow brings to life this unlikely, captivating romance of the early 1900s.
