A Few 5 Star Reviews:

After reading Caryl McAdoo’s story of Henry and Susannah in “VOW UNBROKEN,” I felt like I’d had another adventure with Tom Sawyer and Becky, this time as young adults.

Caryl McAdoo is a new unique voice in historical Christian fiction. I fell in love with the characters from the very first page. They pulled me into their lives and kept me there through the whole interesting storyline. I found the setting authentic, and Caryl kept me turning pages. I know you’ll love this book as well as I did.

Loved this story! Fresh, strong voice from Caryl McAdoo…most memorable character [heroine Sue Baylor] I’ve encountered in some time. Well plotted and nicely paced. There’s a Louis L’Amour and All-American feel to Caryl’s writing. Beautiful romance, one of the nicest I’ve seen in a while.

The author does a wonderful job of capturing the spirit of the mid 1800’s in Texas. I was caught up in the story line and the characters’ lives from the very first pages.

With believable characters, very good research, and a flare for Texas vernacular, Caryl transports the reader back in time to the pre-Civil War Wild West.
