Forgiveness and love create a beautiful story!

The Silent Songbird is a wonderful woven tale of deception, heroics deeds, forgiveness and love.
Evangeline (Eva) is the ward of King Richard whom has given her to the Earl of Shiveley. To escape being married off as a political pawn Eva runs away with a band of peasants, whose leader turns out to be Westley (the son of the Lord of le Wyse). She and her companion tell Westley that she is mute in they're looking for work so he takes them to Glynval to work for his family. All is good, well as good as it can be for someone who has never been a servant, let just say Eva talent is definitely her voice! Until Eva witnesses someone who attacks Westley and she chooses to save him from drowning. In calling for help she reveals her lie and has to face the consequences of that lie on her budding relationship with Westley. The hero and heroine are both learning to forgive each other as well as trusting each other at the same time.
Eva ultimately learns that her true deliver and healing is only found in Christ when she turns her heart and life over to Him. Then she finds the peace and strength to face her future no matter what happens to her.
I loved returning back to Glynval once again and once again Melanie doesn't let the reader down with her humor, faith and romance. Thanks again for the wonderful adventure Mrs. Dickerson!

I received an advanced copy of the book from NetGalley and the author but was not required to leave a review. The review is my honest opinion of the story.
