Illuminations of the Heart
by Joyce DiPastena
Knights, Castles, Lords, Ladies, Faith and More
Tristin, who is a knight, loses his wife to a fall down the stairs as well as is accused of other sins and things he did not do. But Raynor pursues him all through the story to vindicate his sister's death, only to find out the baby she carried belonged to someone else.
Siriol comes to the castle with a letter from her brother who has passed away. He made Tristin ward of her to protect her. On the way, she is accosted by a band of robbers and then saved and delivered to Tristin's castle. There are a lot of events to keep you entertained, enthralled and reading on and on and on.
I was truly surprised by this book. I thought my oldest daughter would love it because she loves Medieval stuff. I have never been a big fan of castles, kings, lords, etc. But this book blew me away. I found myself enraptured within the pages. The book is full of faith, forgiveness, and spiritual insight too. You hold your breath over and over again hoping someone gets loose and other stuff. You finally reach a point where you know you aren't going to sleep. So you shut the computer off early and read for three hours because you have to know how the book ends. You become like a cheering squad. What I liked most about this book was the faith aspect woven in it. It showed how tough it was to have faith during this period. So if you don't like castles, knight, etc., you'll still love this book.
