When Ethne O’Connor’s brother tells her of father’s unexpected death, Sean asks her to do something she promised herself she’d never do. Come back home.
A victim of childhood abuse, Ethne left her father and the small Texas town of Crescent Bluff ten years ago on the night of her high school graduation. She’s determined to end the cycle of abuse and believes the only way to do that is remain single. If she has no husband, she’ll never have children that can be abused.
Then she meets Daniel Spenser, a handsome doctor with chocolate-kiss eyes. Daniel understands her past in a way no one else does. He’s lived it.
Will Daniel be able to help Ethne break the chains of captivity around her heart?
And will God release her from her past, to be free to trust the man she comes to love?
This book is AMAZING! (the adjective is an inside joke between the main characters). I like the way James employs word play throughout this novel. I also like the storyline itself—the main characters sharing similar inner struggles that must be confronted before they can achieve freedom from their pasts and open their hearts to others. James subtly weaves Christian scripture into their communications. She also allows them to fail. This happily-ever-after story offers a redemptive message through likable characters and unexpected twists and turns. Those who enjoy reading light romance with a Christian theme will appreciate this story. I received an advance reader copy in exchange for my honest review.
I absolutely loved this novel by Carol James! I received a complimentary copy of this book and was not required to write a review. All opinions expressed are my own. I’m No Longer A Captive the main characters both have their pasts and pain that they have to work through. The author beautifully connected their stories and the way that they are together so that they work through their heartache together. Ethne is a strong, brave and amazing (inside joke) heroine. Daniel is a wonderful character and incredible example to Christian men of all ages. I love the fact that Josh ( from Season of Hope) is in this novel. It’s great to have a character crossover between novels by Carol. You will fall in love with this story and the people in it!
I really enjoyed this book. The author does a really good job of dealing with child abuse and how it affects people all through their lives. But, she also gives hope for those that deal with it. The main characters, Ethne and Daniel, are very well developed and very lifelike. I just fell in love with them. It's a book that grabs you and pulls you right into it. I highly recommend it. I was given a copy of the book from the author, but this review is my own opinion.
