What I'm Reading Wednesday


I just started reading the third book in the Hearthfire Scottish romance series, A Promise of Home, by Michele Paige Holmes. I loved the first two books in the series and the third one so far is just as good! I'm so glad we get to see more of Katie and Collin's journey, but we also get to see Ian's story in this book. Of course I really love that we get to see some Canadian locations, too! I will definitely give a full review of this one when I'm finished.

Here's the back copy:

As Katie and Collin MacDonald prepare to embark on the most perilous journey of their lives—crossing the Atlantic to Nova Scotia—an ocean away Collin’s brother Ian is seeing the coast of Virginia for the first time.

After a voyage that would have cost Ian his life, except for the courage and timely aid of Elizabeth Campbell, Ian plans to risk the same returning to Scotland as soon as possible, even if that means stowing away. But as Eliza and Ian form an unlikely friendship, Ian realizes he cannot simply abandon Eliza and their fellow passengers to the cruel fates that await them. At the risk of his own freedom, he decides he must do what he can to help.

After a narrow escape in London, Katie and Collin cross the ocean swiftly, with the smaller ship Cleopatra making good time until she encounters a fierce storm near Sable Island. The tempest threatens both the ship and Katie’s fragile health, and their arrival in Halifax brings little relief, but further proof that the dangers of this new continent will equal or surpass the old.
