By Christian Fiction and More In this second book in The Southold Chronicles we once again enter the lives of the Horton family and their many friends, this time during the year of 1653. Benjamin Horton, the second oldest son, is in love with his childhood friend, Heather Flower. Heather Flower, princess of the Montaukett tribe, struggles with her emotions following the rescue from her kidnappers who killed her groom on their wedding day. Benjamin understands her need for time to heal, but worries about the intentions of her rescuer, Dutch Lieutenant Dirk Van Buren who also has eyes for the lovely princess. Through the telling of Benjamin’s story, DeMarino reveals the bond between the members of the Horton family and their dearest friends. She opens a window for her readers to see how the English and their native neighbors learned from, supported and depended upon one another. I found the descriptions of how daily chores and winter preparations were accomplished fascinating, and how bits of free time were spent inspirational. I am anxious to try Mrs. Horton’s recipe for pippin [apple] pie. The story moves at a slow, relaxed pace, and will appeal to readers who like characters to be fully developed. It will be less appealing to those who prefer being kept in suspense, steep climaxes and lots of action. The author was inspired by her own family’s history in the settling of what would become Long Island, and fans of historical fiction will appreciate the research behind her writing. While I don’t always read an author’s acknowledgements section, this time I did. When reading the author’s comments about her father, Howard M. Worley, who authored his first book at the age of eighty-nine, I was reminded of an article I had recently read in Guideposts magazine. Sure enough I flipped through and found Rebecca DeMarino’s article about her father’s writing and how it was impacted by a heart attack in the May, 2015 issue! The article demonstrates that Rebecca’s own family has a strong support system, maybe being what inspired the same among her fictional Horton family. I thank Revell Publishers and Christian Fiction Blog Alliance for providing To Capture Her Heart for my honest review. I did not receive any monetary compensation for a favorable review and the opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

To Capture Her Heart by Rebecca DeMarino By Tina Rice To Capture Her Heart***** book 2 Southold Chronicles by Rebecca Worley DeMarinoHeather Flower, a princess of the Montaukett tribe, is celebrating her wedding feast when tragedy struck as a rival tribe attacks and kills her husband, taking her captive. After her ransom was paid she was bound and left to die by her captives—until Dutch Lieutenant Dirk Van Buren comes and rescues her. Staying with her aunt and with the help of English friends—Horton family—Heather Flower is recovering from her ordeal and grieving the loss of her husband. Two men compete for her heart, longtime friend Benjamin Horton and Lt. Dirk. How does she choose between these two honorable men?Even though I have not read the first book in this series, A Place in His Heart, I was able to get a feel for the relationships of the characters in the story. There is much to like about this book, the real-to-life characters face challenges much like we do today. However, since this is set in 1653, there are many challenges they faced unique to the time and Rebecca DeMarino described those challenges well. I especially liked the in-depth descriptions of the bead work Heather Flower used to create beautiful items and the wampum’s. I liked the historical aspect of the story, which included the conflict between the different tribes as well as between the English and the Dutch. I could feel how hard the decision Heather Flower faced was in choosing one of the men who loved her, or choosing another path and her desire to follow God's leading in whichever path she choose. I found myself going back and forth between Ben and Dirk, and which one would she ultimately choose. I knew who I wanted her to pick, the ending was an unexpected surprise. The secondary characters are an important part of the story-line and the way their lives intertwine together. This story is full of drama, adventure, grief, joy, hardships, tragedies, triumphs, love, strong faith woven throughout the story and so much more to make this a fantastic story.~I won a copy of this book on Colonial Quills Tea Party and author, this is my honest review~

Review from Rambles of a SAHM By Amazon Customer The book that began this series, A Place in His Heart, was the first book that I read by Rebecca DeMarino. It was a fascinating tale about the journey to the New World with Barnabas and Mary Horton. To Capture Her Heart picks up the story several years later when the colony is well established and their son Ben is a grown man thinking of settling down. He's recently been dumped by his intended so now he is determined to win the affection of his childhood friend Heather Flower.When the story begins we are swept up into the rescue of Heather Flower by Dutch Lieutenant Dirk Van Buren. While everyone is grateful that Dirk was able to rescue Heather Flower he is still Dutch and most of the townspeople don't trust him. But right away he captures Heather Flowers affection much to the irritation of Ben.As the story moves along the author continues to give us a bit of insight into the beginnings of our great nation. It's easy to romanticize it all but even after leaving the persecution and establishing a colony there were many obstacles to face and conquer.I enjoyed the continuing story of the characters that we met in A Place in His Heart. I also look forward to the third book in the series. There's a sneak peek in the back of the book that will make you wish it would hurry up and be published! Rebecca DeMarino does a splendid job of combining history and romance to keep the pages flying.When a book is part of a series I'm always asked if it can be read as a stand alone novel. The answer this time is probably but you'll be missing out on so many details from the first novel that I wouldn't recommend it. In my opinion I think you need to know the background of the Horton family to understand some of the dynamics going on. I say just treat yourself and read both books . . . and then pick up the third when it is out!I received a copy of this book to facilitate my review.
