Dawson’s Fall by Roxana Robinson
Special thanks to Wunderkind PR for providing our copy of Dawson’s Fall by Roxana Robinson in exchange for an honest & fair review.

It truly transported me back to the 1800’s and the struggles our country was having during that time. Dawson started his journey in England and finagled his way onto a US navy ship to come…
