Misty M. Beller provides another sweet romance with her latest release A Healer’s Promise.
Book Blurb
Levi Masters’s time as a British spy hasn’t ended, though his country’s war with America has. Overhearing a scout reveal a discovery that could give America an upper hand in future conflicts, Levi is sent to investigate. While trekking through the Canadian Rockies, he is convicted about his life of lies and half-truths. But just as he decides to embrace truth at any cost, warriors from a hidden mountain village take him captive.
Village healer Audrey Moreau is more curious than afraid of the outsider. And she’s drawn to his commitment to honesty even at his own expense. But despite her arguments, the council decides he’s too great a risk. Compelled to help him escape, she sneaks him out of the village. But when Levi faces a life-threatening injury and the fierce mountain winter closes in, Levi and Audrey are forced to discover just how far they’ll go to ensure the safety of the other and the love growing between them.
My Thoughts
Though A Healer’s Promise is the second in a series, and though I haven’t yet read the first book, I was able to read this novel without any confusion. Beller does a great job orienting the reader with characters that would be familiar to someone who first read A Warrior’s Heart.
Audrey and Levi’s relationship goes through enough challenges that even though their relationship was short, it was believable that it developed so quickly. Beller highlights each character’s strengths and weaknesses as they navigate tough situations.
As for the spiritual arc, both characters discuss their faith in God and trusting in His timing and not theirs. While Levi and Audrey do make mistakes, they own up to them, showing a maturity that will encourage readers in their own walks.
Overall, A Healer’s Promise is a sweet romance historical fiction lovers will enjoy.
(Note: I received a complimentary copy via NetGalley for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.)
