Launch Day for A Heart on Hold by Sara Barnard

Today is the launch day for Sara Barnard's A HEART ON HOLD! Sara is one of my fellow 5 Prince Publishing authors, so I'm excited to present her today! Please leave a comment with contact information (or email me directly) and you could win an Amazon Gift Card!

A HEART ON HOLD is a Civil War based Historical Romance.  This well written tale will move you!



Charlotte’s lips only took a moment to find those belonging to her beloved.  He tasted faintly of molasses and she was immediately drawn into the warmth of his embrace.  Their bodies were perfectly pressed together, fitting as though one had been divinely made for the other, as Sanderson’s kisses trailed from Charlotte’s lips down her neck. 
      Her hands found his softly stubbled face and guided him back to her lips.  With his strong arms around her, she’d never felt more safe.  Or more vulnerable. 

War.  Devotion.  Deceit.  Death.  How long can a heart hold on before it breaks?  Most women would carry on with their lives after being thrust into widowhood, but not Charlotte Adamsland.  Upon learning that her husband, Captain Sanderson Redding, was killed in a botched escape from a Confederate prison in Illinois, she clings to his promise to return to her no matter what, and quickly heads north through a war-ravaged country with only her faith in God and her beloved horse to bring her beloved Sanderson home – one way or another.

  1. I have only read the first few pages of this book and am hooked. Sara's writing is great at making me "see" everything that is happening. I could almost feel the cold water on my feet from the stream.
    God bless her and her family for what they do for this amazing country!
