ABOUT THE BOOK
Series: Codebreakers #1
Author: Roseanna M. White
Publisher: Bethany House
Release Date: June 4, 2019
Genre: Historical Fiction/Romance/Intrigue
Three years into the Great War, England’s greatest asset is their intelligence network—field agents risking their lives to gather information, and codebreakers able to crack every German telegram. Margot De Wilde thrives in the environment of the secretive Room 40, where she spends her days deciphering intercepted messages. But when her world is turned upside down by an unexpected loss, for the first time in her life numbers aren’t enough.
Drake Elton returns wounded from the field, followed by an enemy that just won’t give up. He’s smitten quickly by the too-intelligent Margot, but how to convince a girl who lives entirely in her mind that sometimes life’s answers lie in the heart?
Amidst biological warfare, encrypted letters, and a German spy who wants to destroy not just them, but others they love, Margot and Drake will have to work together to save them all from the very secrets that brought them together.
Series: Shadows Over England #2
Author: Roseanna M. White
Publisher: Bethany House
Release Date: January 2, 2018
Genre: Historical Fiction/Romance/Intrigue
Willa Forsythe is both a violin prodigy and top-notch thief, which make her the perfect choice for a crucial task at the outset of World War I—to steal a cypher from a famous violinist currently in Wales.
Lukas De Wilde has enjoyed the life of fame he's won—until now, when being recognized nearly gets him killed. Everyone wants the key to his father's work as a cryptologist. And Lukas fears that his mother and sister, who have vanished in the wake of the German invasion of Belgium, will pay the price. The only light he finds is in meeting the intriguing Willa Forsythe.
But danger presses in from every side, and Willa knows what Lukas doesn't—that she must betray him and find that cypher, or her own family will pay the price as surely as his has.
MY THOUGHTS ON THE NUMBER OF LOVE
The Number of Love
by Roseanna M. White blends war-time intrigue, delicious romance, and
lurking danger to create a captivating story that is unexpectedly
thought-provoking.
Roseanna
M. White's writing finesse shines in her prose and characters. My
favorite character in The Number of Love is
Margot. She fascinated me with her mathematical genius and unique way
of thinking. The correlation between numbers and Margot's prayers
prodded me to consider... Does God use our unique abilities and
interests to speak to us in ways others might not understand? I think
so.
What
I loved most in The Number of Love
was the author's treatment of God's silence during difficult times. I
could identify with many of Margot's thoughts and emotions. Plenty of
time is allotted to the examination of this issue and easy, pat
answers are bypassed in favor of deep character development. Margot's
struggle and resulting growth was a pleasure to observe.
The Number of Love
is the first novel in The Codebreakers series by Roseanna M. White.
It does have returning characters from her other novels, particularly
A Song Unheard;
however, it can be read as a stand-alone novel. I recommend this
novel to readers who enjoy inspirational historical romances.

DeleteI've been waiting for this one for a long time, it seems! I can't wait to read about Margot's logical thinking. I love how you said God can use our abilities to speak to us in unique ways. Yes, I absolutely believe this! I have always loved music, and the Holy Spirit uses it more than any other way to speak to me--it's almost like our own little language. :) Thank you for this review--it really makes me want to read it now!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your experience! It's amazing to think that God places inside of us natural inclinations and then uses them to communicate with us. I hope you have a chance to read the book soon. It was so good!
