Back Cover
In the summer of 1918, Captain Marcus Weatherford arrives in Russia on a secret mission, with a beautiful ballerina posing as his fiancée. He's there to find the Romanov tsarina and her son and glean information about a plot to assassinate Lenin. As the danger intensifies, Marcus's sense of duty battles with his desire to return home to Clare, the woman he truly loves, before it's too late.
Military hospital orderly Clare Danner still suffers from Marcus's betrayal after learning he's engaged to another woman. Clare also fears losing her daughter, Daisy, to the heartless family who took her away once before. Only Marcus can provide the critical proof needed to save Daisy, but when an injury leaves him powerless to help, Clare's fate - and the fate of the top-secret mission - hangs in the balance.
Review
In Love's Time is another wonderful historical war-time novel by Kate Breslin. I love that Marcus finally has his own story - yay! He was such a intriguing side character in Far Side of the Sea, that his story was just begging to be told.
This book encapsulates a beautiful story of resilience, love, forgiveness, and faith. Once of my favourite aspects of the book was how the author captured Marcus' family. Yes, they had been through some rough times. But through it all, each member pulled together and showed fierce love, loyalty, and support for one another. In a world where entertainment dramas seem to be pointedly trying to drive family units apart, the Weatherfords were a breath of fresh air.
I really enjoyed this read and highly recommend it to fans of historical fiction!
