Cupid's Arrow

by Mary Jean Adams

Can love breathe new life into a shattered heart? Christiana Saint-Ange is ready to die. Revolutionary France has become a living hell and her life along with it. When her aristocratic brother enlists the aid of the freedom-loving Americans to rescue her from her appointment with Madame Guillotine, she finds herself sailing to America. Can she put her country and her past behind her? Captain Neil Blakely is more than willing to be the white knight when the situation calls for it. He's just more accustomed to his damsels in distress being grateful for his help. His latest charge is threatening his crew with the cutlery. In the time it takes to sail to America, can he discover what demons haunt his reluctant passenger? And, does her family really expect him to just hand her over to a fiancé she's never met?

This book was phenomenal. I thought Christiana cold at first, but there was something that compelled me to want to like her. I did learn to like her. I learned that she had endured enough to make anyone hard on the outside.

How could I not fall in love with Neil an american with the soul of Don Quixote. He was the perfect sea captain and the perfect hero. What a beautiful story this was with love and pain mixed with a great adventure. A special visit from Mont Trignon only made it even better.

Mary Jean Adams has really done an outstanding job with these colonial american's and their love stories. I truly want to read more about these heroic early Americans. I requested a chance to review this book and was given a copy in order to do so. I am so glad I did.
