Description
Once London's top thief, Barclay Pearce has turned his back on his life of crime and now uses his skills for a nation at war. But not until he rescues a clockmaker's daughter from a mugging does he begin to wonder what his future might hold.
Evelina Manning has constantly fought for independence, but she certainly never meant for it to inspire her fiancé to end the engagement and enlist in the army. When the intriguing man who saved her returns to the Manning residence to study clockwork repair with her father, she can't help being interested. But she soon learns that nothing with Barclay Pearce is as simple as it seems.
As 1915 England plunges ever deeper into war, the work of an ingenious clockmaker may give England an unbeatable military edge--and Germany realizes it as well. Evelina's father soon finds his whole family in danger--and it may just take a reformed thief to steal the time they need to escape.

Loved reading this! I wasn't sure what to expect, but this book is so much more than I first thought! So good!

What a lovely Christian historical fiction-romance novel set in London! Third in a beloved series but definitely works as a standalone. Tells the compelling story of Barclay, a reformed thief brought in to help the Admiralty during WWI, and his love interest Evelina, daughter of the clockmaker whose important work he assists. Draws you fully in as the best fiction does and leaves you wanting more when the last page is closed. 5/5
Pub Date 04 Sep 2018. Available on Amazon.
Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the review copy. Opinions are mine.

Roseanna White excels at creating a perfectly atmospheric landscape enhanced by her obvious research. Detailed with rich characterization and a dash of suspense, An Hour Unspent concludes a fantastic trilogy. But while readers of the previous two books will be delighted to spend more time with friends they have already met and loved, new readers will have no difficulty falling into the brilliant story world.

I did not realize that this was a third book in a series when I requested it. Though I have been able to read Roseanna White's new Codebreaker series, and I am loving it, so I know that I will eventually get back to this book/series and read them in order, so that I can fully appreciate the story and plot line set up.
