About the Author

Abbie Williams writes passionate, emotional fiction about relationships, heartache, and redemption. Fans refer to her writing as "fabulous" and "heartbreakingly realistic.”

The author of more than a dozen novels, Abbie lives in rural Minnesota with her husband and their busy family. Her abiding interest in women's issues, family dynamics, and nineteenth century history permeates her writing.

Soul of a Crow is the second book in The Dove Saga, a sweeping post-Civil War trilogy.

Be sure to also read Abbie's Shore Leave Cafe Romance series, a nine-book saga about the lives and loves of a family of women who live on a Minnesota lake. The story continues in her most recent novel, A Place to Belong.

When Abbie isn't writing, teaching, or taking care of her busy family, you can find her hanging out on the dock, listening to some good bluegrass music.

Reviews

"Set just after the U.S. Civil War, this passionate opening volume of a projected series successfully melds historical narrative, women's issues, and breathless romance with horsewomanship, trailside deer-gutting, and alluring smidgeons of Celtic ESP." Publishers Weekly

"There is a lot I liked about this book. It didn't pull punches, it feels period, it was filled with memorable characters and at times lovely descriptions and language. Even though there is a sequel coming, this book feels complete." Dear Author

"With a sweet romance, good natured camaraderie, and a very real element of danger, this book is hard to put down." San Francisco Book Review

"Williams populates her historical fiction with people nearly broken by their experiences." Camille-Yvette Welsch, Foreword Reviews
