THE BOUND HEART
One accidental kiss. That was all it took to throw Meredyth Summercourt's world upside-down. Determined to marry the ever-elusive Vance Everstone, she simply doesn't have the time or the desire to fall for her friend Lawry Hampton. However, with Vance out of the country and Lawry constantly at her side, Meredyth can’t help but wonder if what’s holding her to Vance is nothing more than a desire to redeem herself from their unfortunate past.

When Vance comes home to stake his claim on Meredyth, will she be strong enough
to break free from the tangled web she’s convinced she deserves? Or will she
find the strength to accept that God’s plan for her life could include
redemption... and quite possibly Lawry Hampton?
I've said it before. . .have not changed my mind . .Dawn Crandall writes a ~ FIRST PERSON POV~ story better than most I've read. Especially in Historical Romance.
Meredyth Sunmercourt is another character, derived out of Dawn Crandall's imagination, but comes to life on the pages of The Bound Heart with depth of personality. Her desires meshed with what she feels she deserves have her tumbling within, but her outward appearance can't help but keep others guessing. Ms Crandall has once more given the reader room to guess without cliche`d twists and turns in her story. An excellent read ~ Another excellent read ~ I would say.
I featured The Hesitant Heiress previously on Journeys To Joy. . .be sure to check the archives for that feature/review.
The Hesitant Heiress released August 12th of this year. You do not want to miss reading that one, either!
