Captured by Moonlight (Twilight of the British Raj Book 2) by Christine Lindsay

Book Description:

Prisoners to their own broken dreams…
After a daring rescue goes awry, Laine Harkness and her friend Eshana flee to the tropical south of India…and headlong into their respective pasts.
Laine takes a nursing position at a plantation in the jungle, only to discover that her former fiancĂ© is the owner…but fun-loving Laine refuses to let Adam crush her heart like he had years ago.
Eshana, captured by her traditional uncle and forced once more into the harsh Hindu customs of mourning, doubts freedom will ever be hers again, much less the forbidden love that had begun to flower.
Amid cyclones, epidemics, and clashing faiths, will the love of the True Master give hope to these searching hearts?

As I sit here, contemplating this wonderful novel I just finished, I sit amazed at the beautiful way Lindsay wove the story and brought it to completion. Captured by Moonlight, slowly but sweetly drew me in. The characters and setting are all too real. At time causing me aggravation with them and really with our human condition; the way we try to protect ourselves or take on more than the Lord would burden us with. So much of their heart ache and ours could be avoided if we would not pridefully think we can handle it all on our own.

This novel will sweep you away in time and location, and firmly entrench you within its' pages. This series has been a delight! Just like Book 1, Captured by Moonlight packs in not only a well told story but so many life applying, spiritual truths to ponder. Truths written and woven into the fabric of the story that seem seamless and not contrived. As you turn the last page, I believe you too will find such a sense of satisfaction and delight with a novel well done. Also, I believe you will be as eager as I to begin the final book in the series, Veiled at Midnight.


*** This novel was given to me to consider and review. These thoughts stated are my own honest review.
