Ten years after her parents were killed, Evelyn Radcliffe is once more homeless. The orphanage that was her refuge and later her workplace has burned to the ground, and only she and a young orphan girl have escaped. Convinced this must be related to her parents' murders, Evelyn flees with the girl to Mesquite Springs in the Texas Hill Country and finds refuge in the home of Wyatt Clark, a talented horse rancher whose plans don't include a family of his own.
At first, Evelyn is a distraction. But when it becomes clear that trouble has followed her to Mesquite Springs, she becomes a full-blown disruption. Can Wyatt keep her safe from the man who wants her dead? And will his own plans become collateral damage?
Suspenseful and sweetly romantic, Out of the Embers is the first in a new series that invites you to the Texas Hill Country in the 1850s, when the West was wild, the men were noble, and the women were strong.

I’ve been wanting to read a book by Amanda Cabot for awhile now because they all seem to have stellar reviews! So, when I had the opportunity to get a copy of Out of the Embers, I was really hoping I’d be able to get a copy.

Taking place in the 1850s, Out of the Embers is a clean, historical, Christian romance that was an absolute delight to read!

Filled with just the right amount of intrigue and romance, I’m so glad that I got a chance to read this one!

Amanda Cabot is an amazing writer. She has no qualms about writing villains and making them hateful. I love that there was no sugar-coating to make the villain seem more relatable. He was truly a vile character.

The main characters both had amazing back stories that made them perfectly relatable and made me root for them and their happily-ever-after from the beginning. I love when characters have more to overcome than just a villain.

The romance started out as friendship, and naturally blossomed into more which was just the perfect way to make these two end up together!

This read just solidified why Amanda Cabot is such a gem!

 

 

 

 

 

About Amanda Cabot

With both parents avid readers, it's no surprise that Amanda Cabot learned to read at an early age. From there it was only a small step to deciding to become a writer. Of course, deciding and becoming are two different things, as she soon discovered. Fortunately for the world, her first attempts at fiction were not published, but she did meet her goal of selling a novel by her thirtieth birthday. Since then she’s sold more than thirty-five novels. When she’s not writing, Amanda enjoys sewing, cooking and – of course – reading.
