MY THOUGHTS.....
Holy water with healing qualities and time-altering abilities! This fourth book of the Waters of Time series offers another amazing adventure that transports readers from modern times back to the Middle Ages in the search for this miraculous water. Wait for Me has thrilling suspense, modern-day terrorists, and an unexpected twist that adds a whole new dynamic. There's also a romance that is totally captivating! The attraction between Dawson and Philippa is instant and the chemistry is intense, but author Jody Hedlund never crosses the line in this sweetly romantic but totally clean romance. Is there a future for Dawson and Philippa, or are they doomed to be star-crossed lovers?
I didn't think that this series could get any better, but I was totally wrong! Hedlund excels in creating dashing heroes and beautiful heroines, but she also shows their realistic human failings. Her time travel is both plausible and enjoyable, and she never fails to provide a thought-provoking faith message! I highly recommend Wait for Me for fans of romantic Christian fiction.
I received a complimentary copy from the author. There was no obligation for a favorable review.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Jody Hedlund is the best-selling author of over twenty historicals for both adults and teens and is the winner of numerous awards including the Christy, Carol, and Christian Book Award. She lives in central Michigan with her husband, five busy teens, and five spoiled cats
