The Pelican Bride (Gulf Coast Chronicles Book #1): A Novel
She's come to the New World to escape a perilous past. But has it followed her to these far shores?
When she falls in love with Tristan Lanier, an expatriate cartographer-turned-farmer whose checkered past is shrouded in mystery, Geneviève realizes that even in this land of liberty one is not guaranteed peace. Trouble is brewing outside the fort between the French colonists and the native people surrounding them. And an even more sinister enemy may lurk within. Could the secret Geneviève harbors mean the undoing of the colony itself?
Gulf Coast native Beth White brings vividly to life the hot, sultry South in this luscious, layered tale.

Beth White's foray into colonial Louisiana is historical romance of the highest quality."--Laura Frantz, author of Love's ReckoningandLove's Awakening
"Not your usual setting, not your usual historical romance--The Pelican Bride breaks new ground in the historical genre. Choosing to write a story set in the French colony that became Mobile, Alabama, draws the reader into a new and exciting period. A winning beginning to a new historical series."--Lyn Cote, author of The Wilderness Brides series
