Are you a history buff slash romance fan?  I definitely fall into that category.  Even before I became a history teacher, I was always fascinated by the stories of the past.  Sweet Sanctuary takes place in the WWII era as you might have guessed from the endearing cover photo.   Having read books by author Kim Vogel Sawyer before, I was expecting something great and wasn’t disappointed.  Sweet Sanctuary is about doing the right thing even when the odds are against you.

The mystery in the book captured me from the very first chapter.   There were enough unexpected twists to keep me interested, while the Christian theme of the story reminded me that God was in control, even in a fictional story.  Anytime a child is involved in a dangerous situation, it gets me all stirred up.  Knowing that this was just a book didn’t help me to settle down.  It made me so painfully aware that times haven’t changed a whole lot since the 1940’s when it comes to drug abuse, child abuse, and relationships.  Sweet Sanctuary was a beautiful example of God’s timing, grace, and forgiveness.

 I apologize for being a bit late to post my portion of this book tour.  Time got away from me on this one!
