Review: A Heart Most Faithful

A Heart Most Faithful book cover on blue background

As part of the Restful August Challenge, I'm delighted that I've been able to dive into a new Regency novella from Carolyn Miller, which is available for free. Not only is A Heart Most Faithful a great introduction to some of her historical series, but it also sets readers up for a new series to come!

Book Synopsis

A kiss, a dance, and a second chance...

After an embarrassing encounter in a London ballroom, Miss Anne Talbot has tried to put Lieutenant Peter Colborne far from mind. His behaviour, as inexplicable as it was reprehensible, has left her certain her fate is spinsterhood, and is determined to protect her all-too-eager younger sister from making a similar mistake. But when a family emergency demands she return with her mother and sister to their Leicestershire village, she is shocked to discover that perhaps Mr. Colborne hadn't forgotten her at all...

A brand new Regency novella involving second chances, glimpses of beloved characters, and an aspiring female novelist with an eye for romance.

Book Thoughts

What a precious novella where we get to meet Anne and Peter. I love their story and their desire to be faithful to God above all else. The words about how our hearts are fickle and can lead us astray indicate just how in tune they are to the Father's will, making this story both memorable and charming. I appreciate that both characters can admit to their faults as they acknowledge the past and look to the future with hope and love. If you're looking for a great introduction to the rest of Carolyn Miller's Regency books, A Heart Most Faithful sets the tone in welcoming readers to stories of faith where the presence of Jesus can be felt between the pages.

Review: The Battle for Heaven and Earth - A Story of Scripture #1

When I saw this book being offered for #CampNetGalley this summer, I knew that it would be an excellent opportunity to try biblical fiction with a twist on it. The Battle for Heaven and Earth by Mark M. Yarbrough and Jerry B. Jenkins is a book unlike what I've read before and it's already whet my appetite for what's next in the series. It's riveting with fast-paced scenes while plunging me into scenes of much spiritual depth. Since it won't be published until November 3, 2026, I am grateful I didn't have to wait that long to enjoy this title. Many thanks to Thomas Nelson Fiction and NetGalley for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis In the beginning—before Earth, before humanity, before sin--there was Heaven. And it was perfect. This is the story of creation as you've never imagined it. Once united in worship and purpose, the angelic realm is shaken when Lucifer—the most beautiful a...
