I am current reading No Greater Glory by Cindy Nord. It set during the civil war. I will give a complete review when I complete it. So far it seems like a good story.

Look forward to your review Sandy:) For me..Im in one of those "reading-slumps" nothing seems to hold my attention for long or I get bored. I hate when this happens I need a book that will grab me!:(

I understand completely Sandi, I have been fighting with the same thing.
I finished No Greater Glory
and loved this story. I see after the fact that is has a 4+ rating. Very well written and I think anyone here would enjoy this book. Below is the synopsis.
Amid the carnage of war, he commandeers far more than just her home.
Widowed plantation owner Emaline McDaniels has struggled to hold on to her late husband’s dreams. Despite the responsibilities resting on her slender shoulders, she’ll not let anyone wrest away what’s left of her way of life—particularly a Yankee officer who wants to set up winter camp on her land.
With a defiance born of desperation, she defends her home as though it were the child she never had…and no mother gives up her child without a fight.
Despite the brazen wisp of a woman pointing a gun at his head, Colonel Reece Cutteridge has his orders. Requisition Shapinsay—and its valuable livestock—for his regiment’s use, and pay her with Union vouchers. He never expected her fierce determination, then her concern for his wounded, to upend his heart—and possibly his career.
As the armies go dormant for the winter, battle lines are drawn inside the mansion. Yet just as their clash of wills shifts to forbidden passion, the tides of war sweep Reece away. And now their most desperate battle is to survive the war with their lives—and their love—intact.
