New from Jamie Carie, today's most awarded new Christian romance writer.
Christophé, the Count of St. Laurent, has lost his entire family to the blood-soaked French Revolution and must flee to an ancient castle along the southern border of France to survive. But the medieval city of Carcassonne proves more than a hiding place. Here Christophé meets the beautiful widow Scarlett, a complex and lionhearted woman suddenly taken by the undercover aristocrat's passion for astronomy and its influence upon his faith. Although their acquaintance begins brightly enough, when the Count learns that Scarlett is related to the man who murdered his family, he turns from love and chooses revenge. Heaven only knows what it might take for Christophé to love again, to love his enemy, and to love unconditionally.
Jamie Carie is the author of Snow Angel, a ForeWord magazine Romance Book of the Year nominee, National "Best Books 2007" Awards winner, and 2008 RITA Awards® Best First Book finalist. She lives with her husband and three children in Indianapolis.

Love's First Light
I liked this book set during the French Revolution. I gave it 3 1/2 stars. It was interesting to read about the French Revolution from a male aristocrat prospective and also a fictional female relative of Robespierre. I enjoyed the love story and really like Jamie Carie's writing style.
My only nitpicky problems with the story were the historical inaccuracies. Typically, I'm not one of those readers who has to have everything completely accurate in order to enjoy the story, but it bugs me when facts that are generally known are overlooked. For instance, at the Festival of the Supreme Being, Carie describes a replica of the "Statue of Liberty" that France gave to America. The problem with this is that the Statue of Liberty wasn't even thought of until about 100 years later in 1865 and wasn't completed and dedicated until 1886. I know this is a fictional story, but it disappointed me that such a glaring mistake wouldn't have been caught by at least the editor. I felt a little disillusioned with the book after that, but I still enjoyed it.
