Can a girl enamored with the adventurous seas ever be content
with the tame life of a Southern belle?
When her mother dies, Elizabeth Benjamin heads home to Key West, determined to transform herself into the perfect Southern belle her parents always wished her to be. But nothing goes according to plan. Her brother resents her, the servants do not obey her, and Rourke O'Malley, the dashing man she vowed to forget, refuses to relinquish his hold on her heart. Worst of all, it becomes painfully obvious that her father is not the man he appears to be.
As family secrets come to light, Elizabeth is faced with a difficult choice: to perform her duty and abandon her dreams, or to leave her life of privilege behind to chase the man her father sees as little better than a pirate.
From the first emotional page, author Christine Johnson throws you into a world of impossible choices, hidden desires, and heart-melting romance in the steamy South.

The first
book I’ve had the chance to read by Christine Johnson, Love’s Rescue
delighted me with its captivatingly historical tale. The storyline contains a
diverse and interesting cast of characters amidst plenty of romance, betrayal,
suspense and faith, and with plenty of twists and turns to keep me guessing and
turning pages, I just couldn’t put this book down. A thoroughly enjoyable and
satisfying novel, Love’s Rescue has me looking forward to reading more
from Christine Johnson in the future. Fans of historical romance will not want
to miss this read - it’s a good one.
Thanks to
Revell Reads, I received a copy of Love’s Rescue and the opportunity to
provide an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review, and
all the opinions I have expressed are my own.
