I am reviewing a copy of As Dawn Breaks through Bethany House Publisher and Netgalley:
Rosalind Graham is desperate to escape the arranged marriage she is being forced on her by her ruthless guardian and instead follow her own course, Amidst the Great War in England where she is working as a munitions worker. After the Chillwell factory explodes, killing hundreds of unidentified workers, Rose realizes the world believes she perished in the disaster. Seizing the chance to escape, she risks all and assumes a new identity, taking a supervisory position in Gretna, Scotland, as Miss Tilly Lockhart.
Alex Baird is an RAF captain whose returning home to Gretna on a secret mission to uncover the saboteur suspected in the Chilwell explosion, as Gretna's factory is likely next. Afraid for his families safety, he also finds himself haunted by the guilt he feels for not being able to protect his little brother. Alex is surprised to discover a young woman, Miss Lockhart, renting his boyhood room, but the two eventually bond over their mutual affection for his family--until Alex receives orders to surveil her.
Rose squirms beneath Alex's scrutiny while she is struggling to gain her workers' respect. But when her deception turns to danger, she and Alex must find a way to put their painful pasts behind them and together try to safeguard the future.
I give As Dawn Breaks five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
