On The Wings of Devotion by Roseanna M. White Book Review

Book Description
Against Every Warning, She’s Drawn Ever Closer to the Man Known as “Black Heart”

All of England thinks Major Phillip Camden a monster–a man who deliberately caused the deaths of his squadron. But he would have preferred to die that day with his men rather than be recruited to the Admiralty’s codebreaking division. The threats he receives daily are no great surprise and, in his opinion, well deserved.

As nurse Arabelle Denler observes the so-dubbed “Black Heart,” she sees something far different: a hurting man desperate for mercy. And when their families and paths twist together unexpectedly, she realizes she has a role to play in his healing–and some of her own to do as well.

With Camden’s court-martial looming, an old acquaintance shows up, intent on using him in a plot that sends the codebreakers of Room 40 into a frenzy. With their fragile hopes for the future in the cross hairs, Arabelle and Camden must hold on to hope–and to each other–if they want to survive.


Series: The Codebreakers (Book 2)
Paperback: 390 pages
Publisher: Bethany House Publishers (January 7, 2020)

My thoughts:

On Wings of Devotion is such a compelling book that it was hard for me to stop reading it once I started.  I had waited for this book since finishing the first book, The Number of Love so I knew this would be good but I didn't realize just how good it would be and that I would so caught up in the storyline from the very first page.

Arabelle Denler is an amazing character, she's strong, caring, forgiving and the perfect woman for Phillip Camden who is called Black Heart.  I loved them separately and I loved them together.  Quite honestly I didn't love him immediately because I had viewed him negatively in the first book but Ms. White made me love and root for him to live his best life in this artfully crafted novel. 
There is one scene in the book where I was completely surprised but extremely proud of the spunk Arabelle showed to a certain young man that had me laughing as  I read it.  

I loved everything about this beautifully crafted story that flows at a perfect pace. with a bit of danger, a lot of suspense and truly wonderful characters.  My only complaint is having to wait for the next book in the series. 

I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher.  All opinions are my own.
