Step back into the 1940's...
Once again Sarah Sundin transports readers to a time that we would love to think of as simpler but in reality was as challenging as today. I was totally immersed in the lives of Lillian and Arch feeling as if I'd been transported directly into the 1940's.
Arch was not one of my favorite characters in the previous book but it really didn't take long for him to grow on me. I liked Lillian right off even though there was a time or two I wanted to shake some sense into her. A wonderful cast of characters and I hope to meet some of them again in the next book.
One of my favorite things about Anchor In The Storm it is more than just a historical romance novel. There is a wonderfully chilling thread of suspense woven into it that leaves the reader questioning the motives of just about everyone. Also, Sarah Sundin's meticulous research is readily evident in the richly detailed story. I learned quite a bit in this book as well. I had no clue about the sheer number of attacks on American vessels right of our own East Coast, I also didn't know about the shortage of escort vessels for convoys.
Anchor In The Storm is a wonderful story of love, forgiveness, and learning to trust. It was a great read and I sincerely look forward to the next book in the series.
(I received a copy of this book from Revell in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.)
