Review:

I do enjoy a good historical novel, which is one of the many reasons I wanted to review Though My Heart is Torn by Joanne Bischof, which I received free of charge in exchange for my honest review. I did miss out on reading the first book, Be Still My Soul, in The Cadence of Grace series, but I thought I would give the book a try.

Set in the Blue Ridge Mountains in the early 1900s, Lonnie has finally found the happiness she has always dreamed about with her bluegrass musician husband, Gideon O'Riley. Her love for the Lord has finally caught a hold of Gideon. Everything seems to be going great until they are forced to return to Rocky Knob, where Cassy Allan claims to be Gideon's rightful wife.

As Gideon's past mistakes come to light, Lonnie must continue to have faith in God if she wants to save her marriage.

Though I do love historical fiction, it took me quite sometime to finish reading Though My Heart is Torn. The novel is beautifully written, but I couldn't connect with any of the characters, all which felt a little bland to me. I'm not saying the book isn't worth reading; I'm just a little disappointed with it. Overall, Though My Heart Is Torn is forgettable romantic Christian novel.
