Margret Scott inadvertently finds herself rescued by a British officer in the midst of the American Revolution and ironically her family plays pivotal roles on the colonial side of this historic duel for freedom or control. Little does anyone, even her family know what upheaval will ensue and how pivotal a role this perceived representative of their sworn enemy will play on their own side of the future battles facing them all. Though he tells Margret to trust him and gives some assurance of where his true loyalties lie, she still wonders if she is being deceived by the man she has come to respect and love through the span of their brief acquaintance. Since she is sworn to secrecy about his true identity at his insistence she is unable to ask for input from those older and wiser who might help her navigate this rocky path of romance and alliances. She does try as we all do to trust the Lord and His nudgings as to the veracity of what little Samuel is able to divulge without endangering his ultimate mission in the war or the army he is working for.

While this book was too short for my tastes and third in a series of companion stories, it did manage to include much more character development and detail of the story than I would have imagined possible in its short format. Also for those who haven’t read the other stories in this series (as is my case), this stands alone and I didn’t find myself feeling like I was missing something as I usually do with companion or series books when I haven’t read previous installments. (ISBN#9781602601895, 176pp, $2.97)
