Hannah's Handkerchief Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 82 ratings

With her blonde hair and blue eyes, Hannah Atwell, a Kansas farmer’s daughter, knows she is pretty—and she enjoys pretty things. She spent her life striving to be the perfect, obedient daughter. She feels she is destined for something more than being a farmer’s wife living in a soddie.

While at a party held at Fort Riley, Kansas, to celebrate the end of the Civil War, Hannah begins to question if always doing what she is told is to her advantage. The special event, complete with dancing with handsome young officers and a chaste kissing fundraiser for the Sanitary Commission, opens Hannah’s eyes to possibilities for her life as surely as Lieutenant Jake Burdock captures her heart. She impulsively offers him her handkerchief as a token of her regard. Missed connections, parents who constantly warn against the intentions of some Army officers, and dealing with those close to her who have suffered combat injuries conspire to drive her away from Jake. Only the letters they exchange seem to keep them connected.

Not long after the dance, Jake, who works under Captain Prescott, the quartermaster at Fort Riley, is assigned to duty at the frontier forts in western Kansas. There, many of the living quarters are more primitive than a Kansas soddie. Supplying the uniforms, supplies, horses and mules the soldiers need is challenging at best. In spite of the hardships involved, the Army is Jake’s chosen career. His life constantly at risk, must he sacrifice his chance to share his life with the young woman who had won his heart?

    Hannah was so excited. Whe and her cousin Kizzie had been invited to a dance that would celebrate the surrender of General Lee and the virtual end of the war with the Southern States. It would also raise money to help provide medical supplies and trained nurses to help the injured soldiers returning from war. She had just turned seventeen and she felt it was kind of like her coming out!
    That is where she met Lt Jake Burdock and danced with him and there was an attraction. But would she see him again?
    Zina Abbott has interwoven history into this tale which was so interesting. I don't often hear about what happened after the civil war and as the move west intensified. Hannah had always been the good daughter, trying to obey her parents, who were pretty stern at times. But she and Jake had a journey to take and I could not stop once I started on the first page.
    A wonderful story that at times was difficult as these two try to find a love that will endure forever...

    I was enjoying the story of Hannah and Jake. It moves very slowly and at 85% into the book, the author apologizes because the story to take longer to tell so wait for the HEA in the next book. UGH!!! If I had known that I would not have wasted so much time reading this book.

    A good book. A young lady who had moved west in early Times met a young Soldier serving in the Calvary and was taken with the gentleman he was but he couldn't commit to her while serving in unexpected times during the Indian raids. A must read for those who enjoy historical western romance kindle books from Amazon at a special price and from a delightful author who keeps me wondering what next for the characters.
