REVIEW: A Place in His Heart by Rebecca DeMarino

A Place in His Heart by Rebecca DeMarino

{About the Book}

Anglican Mary Langton longs to marry for love. Puritan Barnabas Horton is still in love with his deceased wife and needs only a mother for his two young sons. And yet these two very different people with very different expectations will take a leap of faith, wed, and then embark on a life-changing journey across the ocean to the Colonies. Along the way, each must learn to live in harmony, to wait on God, and to recognize true love where they least expect to find it.
This heartfelt tale of love and devotion is based on debut author Rebecca DeMarino’s own ancestors, who came to Long Island in the mid-1600s to establish a life–and a legacy–in the New World.

{My Review}

4.5 Stars!!

I loved how the author used her own family history as the background for A Place in His Heart. As someone who loves to research her own family history I think that was so smart and made me more interested in the novel. A Place in His Heart also conveys a time of religious persecution. Barnabas believes her is marrying for the right reasons, his boys do need a mother. Mary believes she has fallen in love with Barnabas and thinks she has finally found a love worth waiting for.

A Place in His Heart was a beautiful historical romance. I recommend is very much.
