Description
Explore the mystery and the romance of the Revolutionary War as a young lighthouse keeper navigates the dangerous waters of revolution and one man’s obsession with her to find safe harbor with the sea captain she loves.
Hannah Thomas believes she’s escaped Galen Wright’s evil intentions by marrying an older lighthouse keeper. Seemingly safe in faraway Massachusetts, her world is upended when John is killed in one of the first battles of the Revolutionary War. Hannah is allowed to continue the difficult task of tending the twin lighthouses in John’s place, though she faces daily disapproval from John’s family. She thinks her loneliness will subside when her younger sister arrives, but she finds Lydia’s obsession with Galen only escalates the dangerous tides swirling around her.
A stormy night brings a shipwrecked sea captain to Hannah’s door, and though he is a Tory, her heart is as traitorous as the dark-eyed captain. Even though she discovers Birch Meredith isn’t the enemy he seemed at first, Hannah isn’t sure their love will ever see the light of freedom.

“Sometimes our lives look like the backside of that tapestry, all mixed up with no sense or pattern. But ’tis only the part we see, Birch. God sees the other side and is molding us to fit the picture he has in mind.”
I truly enjoyed this story! The characters were well written and dynamic. I especially loved Hannah and how she stuck to her faith and tried to do the right thing, no matter how difficult her situation got. I felt bad for Birch and everything he had been through. It’s so easy to give in to bitterness when difficult situations arise but that just makes what we’re going through even harder. My heart broke for Lydia in a few places. It just seemed like she kept making such poor decisions and making things harder for herself and Hannah. Through everything Hannah kept her faith and depended on God’s mercies. The story was predictable but still had a few surprises and it was a fun, easy read.
