"The only living relative of Lord Charles Harrow, Nicole journeys from Nova Scotia to England at the onset of the Revolutionary War, to accept her duty as his heir. Filled with a desperate longing for home, Nicole invites her sister Anne to join her in England. Drawn by her deep love for Nicole, Anne and her infant son join her at the Hawrrow estate. But with war waging between England and the American colonies, a tragic secret threatens to surface and tear these sisters apart forever."

Another fast paced drama in the Acadian series! Oke and Bunn team up to build a vibrant story that continues to fascinate, encourage, and engage readers. As each book ends I find myself reading the next one to discover what occurs in the lives of these well-developed characters! I have underlined many passages of truth to apply to my own life. The fascinating history, elaborate descriptions, and thrilling storyline engage the reader to the last page! I highly recommend this series! (

I read this third in the Song of Acadia series before having completed the second book, and found that it satisfactorily answered most all the questions that the first book "The Meeting Place" had posed. This was a very quick read and the "surprise" resolution to the problem of legacy was very satisfactory. I look forward to finishing the second story and reading on in the series to find out what happens to Nicole and Anne, the two main protagonists. (
