Book 2 in The Heart Set Free Series
The freedom of the Colonies is at stake. Matthew Stewart doesn’t want to put his family in jeopardy and choose a side. He’s been loyal to the crown all his life, so he’s tempted to become a Loyalist. On the other hand, Patriots want to throw off the shackles and govern themselves. He and his wife, Heather, have friends who have chosen opposite sides.
Arguments and fights are something Matthew wants to avoid, so when two men approach him with an opportunity to serve, he keeps it to himself. It’s the only way to protect his wife and children.
Heather knows that Matthew is hiding something, but what is it?
Then Matthew leaves under mysterious circumstances. Where is he?
The author does a great job with revealing the history of the Revolutionary War and its effects on colonist. Being a history buff, my interest was snagged. The characters and their struggles were believable.
I’m looking forward to reading the third book in the series.
