The Red Ribbon
by Pepper Basham
Loved this sweet novel set in early 1900s that’s based on real events. The main characters are fictional, but the town and many of the events are real. It was atmospheric and the mountain setting added to the suspense.

The Cul-de-Sac War
by Melissa Ferguson
This was full of fun, quirky characters and the war was definitely more realistic (not overly dramatic) which I loved. At the core is a sweet love story between two stubborn people–my favorite kind.
