A Heart for Freedom

 
Picture
Author: Janet Grunst
Genre: Historical Romance


He longs for freedom, but he won’t risk those he loves.
​

Matthew Stewart wants only to farm, manage his inn, and protect his family. But tension between the Loyalists and Patriots is mounting. When he’s asked to help the Patriots and assured his family will be safe, he agrees.

She’s seen the cost of fighting England, and she wants no part of it.

In Scotland, Heather Stewart witnessed the devastation and political consequences of opposing England. She wants only to avoid war and protect the family and peace she finally found in Virginia. But the war drums can be heard even from home in the countryside, and she has no power to stop the approaching danger.

The consequences are deadly.
​

When Matthew leaves for a short journey and doesn’t return, Heather faces the biggest trial of her life. Will she give up hope of seeing him again? Will he survive the trials and make his way home? What will be the consequences of his heart for freedom?

Reviewer: Nicole Wegscheider

Author, Janet S. Grunst’s book, A Heart of Freedom is a historical story of change as colonies seek their freedom from oppressive British rule. The change creates fascinating types of mystery such as historical mystery and private eye pursuits.

One of the main characters, Matthew Stewart — a family man, a farmer and an owner of an inn is in the midst of making a private, prayerful decision that is going to impact his family, his friends and his colony. As Matthew’s mysterious decision unfolds, his wife, Heather persistently and prayerfully seeks the truth. It is inspiring to witness the characteristics of the Stewart family — faithfulness, loyalty, loving, supportive and communicative. It is moving to see the love and support of friends during tough times. I enjoyed discovering the news developments through the travellers at Stewart’s inn and I also enjoyed following the prayer journey of Matthew and Heather Stewart. I would highly recommend this historical story.
