ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: On Wings of DevotionSeries: The Codebreakers #2
Author: Roseanna M. White
Genre: Historical Romance
Publisher: Bethany House
Release Date: January 7, 2020
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.

My review:
I love how she destroys the typical book-plot stereotypes that get on my nerves, and turns the plot into something more believable. And with her latest release, it's no surprise that On Wings of Devotion embodies everything I love about this author!
Arabelle Denler is an heiress who's fallen in love with nursing. She loves helping people and bringing them healing- and that's where Phillip Camden comes in. Accused of killing his squadron, he's fighting the demons of guilt and shame that have followed him to London. Ara's tender heart is touched by his story, and she longs to show him that he doesn't have to be broken.
This girl is a hero to me. Book characters can usually feel pretty intimidating because they're so extraordinary- it's easy to see why the book's about them, or why the male hero finds them so desirable. Ara's different- she's just plain ordinary. There's really nothing special about her, you might say, despite the fact that she's an heiress. And while everyone agrees that her looks are pretty common and plain, it doesn't bother her. Or rather, it does, a little- but she doesn't let it. She's more focused on helping others find healing, and that makes her truly beautiful.
Camden is a bit more remarkable to the world around him, but still very relatable to me. He and Ara jointly created memorable scenes that were so heartfelt and fun to read. They're adorable together!
I loved Ara and Cam's tale of intrigue and danger. Even the "slower" moments (such as random conversations) held my attention, and all led up to a riveting climax that had me reading longer than I should have!
Altogether, this story is beautifully crafted, and within all the adventure and danger is a story of true beauty, self-worth, hope, and healing that I couldn't get enough of. Roseanna M. White has blown my mind again!
I voluntarily received this book from the author in order to write an honest review. All opinions are truly my own.
