Unflinching and plainspoken, Tessa Swan is not your typical 18th-century woman. Born and bred on the western Virginia frontier along with her five brothers, she is a force to be reckoned with. Quiet and courageous, Clay Tygart is not your typical 18th-century man. Raised by Lenape Indians, he returns a hero from the French and Indian War to the fort that bears his name, bringing with him Tessa's long-lost friend, Keturah, a redeemed Indian captive like himself. Determined to avoid any romantic entanglements as fort commander, Clay remains aloof whenever he encounters the lovely Tessa. But when she is taken captive by the tribe Clay left, his hand--and heart--are forced, leading to one very private and one very public reckoning. Intense, evocative, and laced with intricate historical details that bring the past to life, An Uncommon Woman will transport you to the picturesque and dangerous western Virginia mountains of 1770.

Tessa Swan is indeed an uncommon woman. She seems unaware of her inner or outer beauty as she helps her mother and also pitches in assisting her five brothers at Swan Station along the Buckhannon River in Western Virginia in the mid 1700s. Swan Station is located near Fort Tygart in border country, an area prone to Indian attacks.
Colonel Clay Tygart, recently assigned to the fort bearing his name, prefers to remain unattached and unencumbered, but ignoring the beautiful Miss Swan becomes harder and harder as time goes by. How can he be sure that the people under his care will not be harmed by such a distraction as signs of Indians increase in the border area? How much of that increase may he have brought upon them in the form of the Lenape's warrior Tamanen's resentment of him?
Laura Frantz has given us another piece of wonderful historical fiction. This time there are no fancy gowns, and only simplest of lace. Linen petticoats are more at home in this settlement area of Western Virginia. Even without these fripperies, Tesssa is a true lady among ladies. I recommend this book and this author to all fans of historical fiction, and am grateful to have received a copy from Revell via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review, and received no monetary compensation.
