This is a story that will prick your heart and call you to examine your own conscience, as the heroine asks herself just how far she is willing to go to please the man she loves. This is more than just a nice historical romance. In a few, well-placed words, she sweeps her readers into another time and place, transporting them from their own life into that of someone they might never otherwise have thought about, let alone taken the time to get to know. Highly recommended!, MaryLu Tyndall can bring a character, a scene, a setting to life as few others can. Based on the writing skill demonstrated here, it won't be my last. Kim Vogel Sawyer-Bestselling author of My Heart Remembers, I loved this story of opposite worlds colliding, and it was the first novel from the author that I had read. Give yourself a treat by losing yourself in one of her enchanting stories. Hidden within the entertainment is a spiritual message that whispers to the corners of your soul.

The opening description of Althea's escape hooks the reader and the novel is a pleasant enough way to pass an afternoon., One can expect two things when they pick up a MaryLu Tyndall novel-endearing characters and a plot that sweeps you away. Ultimately, although this is a book about slavery it comes across as a swash-buckling romance with hints of Pretty Woman, My Fair Lady and Pirates of the Caribbean. It's an interesting thought and perhaps we need to take a look at ourselves and our own lives. Not surprisingly, Tyndall portrays these slaves as the non-Christians in her book. We are slaves to our positions in society, to our looks, to our money. Tyndall doesn't just write about human slavery but how we are all slaves to something in our lives.

This is a thought-provoking read about the perils of slavery.
