As the way things turned out, I was able to read Beloved Captive, book #2 of the Fairweather Keys Series before I read this book #1. So, in starting the story I knew somewhat of what to expect with the plot and the outcome. However, that did not deny my experience even the tiniest bit. I still am shocked and amazed and the twists and turns the plot took through out. Especially, at the growth in which the characters were able to grow as individuals and persons in Christ.
The story is about three women setting out to change a wrong. Each life is extremely different and the path taken is similar but unique. It is also a story about a man and his father learning about how forgiveness is a two-way street. Kathleen Y'Barbo is definite a treat in the written word and I cannot wait to read more of her imagination, including the third in the Fairweather Keys Series coming out next year.

My first novel by this author, I found Beloved Castaway a warm, vintage historical romance filled with turmoil and tenderness. An unconventional boy-meets-girl love story, as filled with twists and turns on the open sea as within the lives and hearts of the characters, the story is anything but typical. The gentile language of the time is like icing on the proverbial cake, making this novel an easy-reading and authentic delight.
