reviewed on + 205 more book reviews


I thoroughly enjoyed Arabelle and Camden's story. I loved the historical aspects as well as the inspirational and romantic ones. This series involves the codebreaking division that we see in a previous series by this author so familiar characters are dotted throughout. I just loved that. What a kick to see my favorite ones show up unexpectedly. But this story stands on its own. Arabelle is wonderfully good and innocent. Sometimes characters who are good can be almost too sugary sweet but this was not the case with Ara. Her personality, although rare, drew me into the story. How does someone manage to get past initial human reactions to do things that go against our natureâthose things that God wants us to do? I so admired her strength of character. And how could I not love Camden? Sure he was nicknamed âBlack Heartâ, but we soon see what Ara sees in himâthat many times blackness comes from deep hurt. What Camden really needs is God. He fights it every step of the way, but in the end (and I hope this isn't a spoiler to anyone), he does find his way. Not only to God, but also to a deep love and peace.
