In Love’s Time

By Kate Breslin

MY REVIEW

Marcus finally gets his story…and what a story! I really enjoyed the suspense and mystery plot in this one. It really keeps the reader engaged. The main characters are fantastic, and I love that old characters are well woven into this one. For me, though, this was plot driven with all the intrigue that was present in the story.

With a faith theme that was incredibly strong and so valuable to the story, it truly fits in the inspirational market. I have read quite a few books this year in which this particular element was disappointing. I really enjoyed the faith thread that was so well woven into the story.

I prefer less romance in my stories, but I think most readers will be pleased. The witty banter is well written, and the attraction is not on looks alone but on the character that lies beneath the surface.

History takes a bit of a back seat in this one for a Kate Breslin novel, but it is completely fascinating. I, of course, learned things I did not know. The reader really feels as if they are taking the journey themselves. The historical backdrop is wonderful. WWI isn’t as common as other wars so I really enjoyed the history.

The characters, fascinating history, strong faith theme, and intrigue plot all combine to create a wonderful novel.

I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

As Dawn Breaks

MY REVIEW

I so enjoyed this story as I have enjoyed every Kate Breslin novel. Her history is always amazing, and I love how much I learn when reading her novels. A WWI setting is not that common…then put it in Scotland, and the reader has a unique historical perspective of the ways and means they used to help win the war.

The characters are wonderfully done, all of them. I enjoyed the main characters, but the secondary characters are so interwoven with the story. The reader feels the familial bonds, the grief of those bonds broken, and the struggling of those trying to hold on to those bonds of relationship during such unsettling times. The romance story is realistic, engaging, and slowly grows ( each looking for certain character traits in the other). It isn’t overdone either. The book strikes a very good balance.

It’s a wonderful storyline with suspense and intrigue. The characters are so realistic, and their struggles definitely relatable. The faith theme is an intrinsic part of the story as they pray to the One who controls it all even though it seems nothing is in control. The amount of history contained is wonderful, interesting, and definitely makes the reader feel as if much thought and research went into the novel. Thoroughly enjoyed, highly recommend.
