Happy Easter! I hope you and your loved ones are having a special day with plenty of sweet treats.
On Wings of Devotion by Roseanna M. White has Arabelle Denler working as a nurse at Charring Cross Hospital in
London of February of 1918. The young
ladies volunteering at the hospital gather each evening to watch Phillip “Black
Heart” Camden walk from the Admiralty building where he works to his
residence. Many people believe Phillip
should still be in prison for what he did to his squadron. It does not help that Phillip receives
threats daily from the wife of one of the deceased pilots. Phillip’s mother comes to London needing his
assistance. It seems his sister,
Cassandra has gotten herself into a pickle with a fellow. He would like to marry her, but he is already
betrothed. Phillip decides to intervene
in his own unique way and meets the heiress Arabelle Denler. Phillip becomes Arabelle’s protector and Arabelle
realizes she is meant to help him heal.
Philip is surprised when a woman approaches him one day outside the
Admiralty. He can tell she is up to
something, and it is up to Phillip to uncover the truth. On Wings of Devotion is the second novel in
The Codebreakers series. It can be read
as a standalone if you have not read The Number of Love featuring Margot De
Wilde. Arabelle Denler and Phillip
Camden are great characters. Arabelle is
a Christian woman who believes God put Phillip in her life for a reason. Phillip wishes he died with the rest of his
squadron in The Incident (as he calls it).
He is a strong man with a big heart.
You can tell that Phillip loves his family and will do what it takes to
help them. He also has a fun loving side
which rarely comes out. The two of them
complement each other which makes for an entertaining story. The author has a wonderful writing style
which draws the reader into her story and holds them until the end. Roseanna M. White captured the time period
and made me feel that I was there with the characters. I loved the intrigue surrounding our mystery
woman and I could not wait to see how this thread would playout. I liked that Margot De Wilde and her fiancé (from
The Number of Love) are in the story along with Barclay Pearce and his family
from Shadows Over England series. On Wings of Devotion is a story of forgiveness and redemption. The author combined romance, humor, mystery
and intrigue along with complex characters into one entertaining story.
On Wings of Devotion can be obtained from Amazon* along with The Number of Love (currently available through Kindle Unlimited). I also suggest you check out Roseanna M. White's Shadows Over England series. Thank you for visiting today. I will return tomorrow with my review of Deep Fried Revenge by Lynn Cahoon. I hope you have a blessed day. Take care, stay safe and Happy Reading!
