Civil War Heroines is a three-book historical romance series by Mary Ellis, all published in 2014. Romance on the River, The Quaker and the Rebel, and The Lady and the Officer each follow a different woman navigating love and loyalty during the American Civil War. The series places its heroines in situations where their convictions are tested by the realities of war and the complications of romance across enemy lines.

Ellis brings her Christian fiction background to these historical romances, with faith playing a role in how the characters face their circumstances. The Civil War setting provides natural dramatic tension, and the focus on women’s experiences during the conflict gives the stories a perspective that complements the more military-focused Civil War fiction.
