Spark of the Revolution

By Megan Soja

A spark ignites a flame that could burn down everything they hold dear.

Contrary to her name, Patience Abbott has long felt unsettled and anxious to leave behind her painful memories in England for a fresh start in America. But her new life isn't quite what she expected, and as tension grows in her new home of Boston, so does the distance between Patience and her estranged father. So when Josiah Wagner walks into her life, it finally feels like she's not alone. If only his patriotic leanings didn't put him at odds with her father's loyalties. 

Josiah Wagner has spent his life yearning for a true home and family, something he works toward each day, forging tools as a blacksmith, and each night, forging plans with the Sons of Liberty. But when the destruction of tea in Boston Harbor lights the spark of the Revolution, Josiah finds himself drawn into its tumultuous wake, pulling the woman he loves along with him. 

As tensions mount, will their search for belonging lead to each other, or will the obstacles between them be too great to overcome? In a land on the brink of war, can they find the home they seek in the One who calls them His own?

Well Researched & Well Written

I never knew the Boston Tea Party could be so interesting as when taught in school it was so dry and boring. Debut author Ms Sonja brings a spark to the story by weaving fiction into history with an outcome that leaves you wanting more. The visualization begins with the beautiful cover and the words bring life to the time period and characters. It is a difficult time for Patience and her brother to arrive in Boston with trouble brewing beneath the surface. Finding herself divided between loyalty to a father she longs to grow closer to and a brother who finds himself agreeing with The Sons of Liberty makes for a poignant storyline especially when a spark of love coincides with the spark of the Revolution. I found myself immersed in this story after not feeling sure about starting it. I love the faith that Patience and Josiah share as that is the icing on the cake. A delicious enlightening story that you devour one piece at a time. I highly recommend giving this new author a place on your must read pile. I found it impressive. I received a complimentary copy from CelebrateLit/Wild Heart Books. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.
