This book is from the Heartsong Presents historical series, sweet historical romances in various settings with an inspirational theme. This particular book is set during the voyage of the Titanic in 1912.
When Annabelle Moorland's mother died, her father decided to take his daughter and spend some time in England with relatives, away from painful memories in America of his dead wife. But they stay longer in England than intended, and eight years pass before Annabelle and her father board the Titanic on it's maiden voyage to America, returing home at last. But Annabelle is shocked when she encounters Lawrence Caldwell on board the ship. In England, Lawrence was Annabelle's childhood love, but she never expected him to return her feelings because he was six years older. Seeing him again only reminds her of that. But shockingly, Lawrence now seems romantically interested in Annabelle, now that she has grown up. But misunderstandings seem to keep them from realizing that they are truly meant to be together. Will they realize their love in time, before tragedy strikes?
This was a pretty good sweet historical romance set during the tragic voyage of the Titanic, although I did find it a bit hard to get into at first. The author did a good job of bringing to life the Titanic and its passengers, with many appearances by real people who sailed on the ship. Readers who enjoy romances and who have an interest in the Titanic will most likely enjoy this book.
