My official review:
combined all the elements I love most in a story–high stakes,
fascinating history, sincere faith, and such intense sparks flying
between the main characters that I thought they might ignite the
rain-sodden countryside of Revolutionary France!
Isabelle, a
duc’s daughter, and Michel, a farmer with a dream of furniture making,
are incredibly compelling characters dropped into a time where the whole
world seems to be stacked against them. Both may be dealing with guilt
and stalled goals, but what else could the two have in common? In a time
when the Terror could snatch both their lives–Isabelle’s for being
born an aristocrat and Michel for harboring her instead of handing her
over to the soldiers–how could this star-crossed love possibly find a
path through the dangers surrounding them?
I confess, I had no
idea how the author would overcome the odds, and I flipped those pages
fast as I could to figure it out! This book packs a lot of punch in its
pages–you don’t want to miss the suspense, faith, and heart-racing
romance of Sanctuary for a Lady!
Running to freedom, she finds love.The injured young woman Michel Belanger finds in the woods is certainly
an aristocrat. And in the midst of France’s bloody revolution,
sheltering nobility merits a trip to the guillotine. Yet despite the
risk, Michel knows he must bring the wounded girl to his cottage to
heal.Attacked by soldiers and left for dead, Isabelle de La
Rouchecauld has lost everything. A duke’s daughter cannot hope for mercy
in France, so escaping to England is her best chance of survival. The
only thing more dangerous than staying would be falling in love with
this gruff yet tender man of the land. Even if she sees, for the first
time, how truly noble a heart can be….
Roseanna M. White is a bestselling, Christy Award winning author who has long claimed that words are the air she breathes. When not writing fiction, she’s homeschooling her two kids, editing, designing book covers, and pretending her house will clean itself. Roseanna is the author of a slew of historical novels that span several continents and thousands of years. Spies and war and mayhem always seem to find their way into her books…to offset her real life, which is blessedly ordinary.
Just ordered a copy for my Kindle. Can't wait to read it!
Sounds LOVELY.
What a glowing review, Roseanna! I hardly feel worthy of it, but thanks so much for your kind words. 🙂
