Strong Writing
After I heard the genre of the book, I was expecting to be bored by chapter 3 but with great delight, I say I was mistaken. By chapter 1, I was already impressed with the interesting plot and the characters were believable unlike other books in its genre. The story carried me to places I hadn't had the honor of visiting before in other books.

You can't put it down!
I absolutely loved the story. I loved it because the characters had depth. They became real to me as I read the book. I felt myself connecting and identifying with them. I returned to my old stomping grounds in Scotland and England as I moved through the pages. I came back across The Pond to my adopted home country of America as the characters did. I identified with their struggles and pain. I went with Michael, one of the main characters, into Buckingham Palace. I rode with him in the Olympics. I sat and listened as he ministered in America. I felt his pain, his joy, his doubt, his assurance. I was surprised by my own emotional reaction to the events as they unfolded, and how I had to fight to keep those emotions in check. (Being British, it's just not proper for a grown man to cry over a book. But boy was it hard not to.) I was inspired. I was challenged. The story came to life within my own head, and I finished the book wishing I could actually meet these people who came to life in the pages of Glynn's book.

An amazing story that grabs you and won't let you go. Absolutely love it. It's action, it's romance, it's Scotland, England and America, it's royalty, it's faith, it's real. A must read!
