This book is Ana Kavangh's story (Cara's friend from the boarding house). Ana has lived through a painful past where she survived a fire that left her with scars not only on her hands, but also on her heart. Through a chance meeting at a local church where Ana volunteers, she meets and befriends Eoghan Hamilton (Cara's brother). Eoghan is still struggling with Cara's betrayal and wants nothing to do with her. Ana is convinced she can bring the two together, but realizes she also has bitterness to deal with when it comes to God. Unbeknownst to Ana, there is someone who wants her dead and trouble is lurking around every corner. And while Eoghan has vowed to protect Ana, He himself is a target too.
I thought this second book continued the story line well. It was thrilling and fun to read. The ending of the book left enough intrigue to make me wish the third book was already out! Ana and Eoghan both have their difficulties that they must face and overcome. And until they see God as good, they struggle in their relationship with Him, blaming Him for all that has happened. I thought the author did a great job building the stories of the characters and weaving together all the mysterious details that make the story interesting. I'm really looking forward to reading about Tillie's story in the third and final book in the series called Tide and Tempest when it comes out March 1, 2014.
