Books to Watch For…Tide and Tempest by Elizabeth Ludwig

"Ludwig Keeps Readers on the Edge of Their Seats . . ."--Booklist

It's been two years since Tillie McGrath last saw Captain Keondric Morgan. He'd let her visit her ill fiancé before he died. Now the dashing captain has found her at the boarding house where she lives and has swept back into her life. But all is not well. He seems to be trying to protect her--from whom or what stays a secret.


Even years later, Keondric never forgot the heartbroken lass from his boat. When a crewmember's death-bed confession hints that her fiancé's death may have been murder, the captain knows he must try to save her. But his attention draws the notice of others as well, dangerous men who believe Tillie may have the last bit of evidence needed to put them away. And trying to stay safe may put them both in more danger than they could have ever imagined.

Dark Road Home (Edge of Freedom #2) by Elizabeth Ludwig~~A Bethany House Book Review

My Review:

Riveting Historical Suspense

First, let me recommend that you read the first book in the Edge of Freedom series No Safe Harbor; in order to understand the continuing plot of hatred between the two warring factions of Irish immigrants (the Fenians and the Unionists) living in America.

The story now focuses on Cara Hamilton’s brother, Eoghan, and her friend Ana Kavanagh. Both Eoghan and Ana have secrets from their pasts that they want and need to keep hidden. Despite this need there is a strong attraction between them.

Eoghan recognizes his feelings for Ana. But his involvement with the Fenians, as well as his associations causes him to want to keep his distance. There is also the issue of one of the leaders who is seeking information about Eoghan’s brother-in-law, Rourke Turner; which causes him to get close to Ana as he seeks the needed information. What Eoghan doesn’t know is that he is being used by someone who intends to harm Ana.

There is so much more I could say, but I do not want to give anything away that will ruin the story for you; although I will add that I was so riveted to the story that I didn’t want to put it down. Now I am anxious to read the next book in the Edge of Freedom series to see how Elizabeth Ludwig concludes this series.

About the Book:

The nightmares of her past have found Ana Kavanagh an ocean away.

Ana Kavanagh's memories of Ireland are mostly of fire and pain. As a girl she survived a blaze that left her an orphan, left her scarred, and left her angry at God. Now in New York, Ana finds a kindred spirit in Eoghan Hamilton, who's struggling with his own anger. His twin sister, Cara, betrayed him by falling in love with his enemy.

Cast aside by everyone, Eoghan hopes to rejoin the Fenians, an organization pushing for change back in Ireland, by securing information against Rourke, the man his sister married. Ana, Cara's friend, may be his best source, and despite the attraction he feels, Eoghan determines to use the girl's sweet nature to his advantage.

Adding to the danger is a specter from Eoghan's own past, one whose thirst for vengeance knows no bounds. Eoghan must choose which road to follow--bitterness or forgiveness--and where to finally place his trust.

No Safe Harbor by Elizabeth Ludwig~~A Litfuse Publicity Group Book Review, Blog Tour and Giveaway


My Review:
No Safe Harbor, the first book in the Edge of Freedom Series, is the first book I have read by Elizabeth Ludwig. I was drawn to the book at first by the cover and then the description. Once I started reading it I was hooked straight through to the end.
The story was full of twists and turns that kept drawing the reader further into the story. Cara Hamilton is in search of her twin brother, Eoghan, but she doesn't know who to trust, and it seemed that every second or third person she met had some kind of connection to her brother; which only  added more suspense to the story, and kept me turning the pages.
I loved Cara's Irish heritage, many of my ancestors immigrated from Ireland to P.E.I., Canada, and eventually settled in northern and central Maine. I could hear the Irish brogue in my mind as I read, that sounded very much like  my great aunt Mara's voice.
I found the story very enjoyable, and am looking forward to reading the next installment to the Edge of Freedom series--Dark Road Home, which focuses on Cara's friend, Ana Kavanagh.
 About the Book:
She came to America searching for her brother. Instead all she’s found is a web of danger.
Cara Hamilton had thought her brother to be dead. Now, clutching his letter, she leaves Ireland for America, desperate to find him. Her search leads her to a houseful of curious strangers, and one man who claims to be a friend–Rourke Walsh. Despite her brother’s warning, Cara trusts Rourke, revealing her purpose in coming to New York.
She’s then thrust into a world of subterfuge, veiled threats, and attempted murder, including political revolutionaries from the homeland out for revenge. Her questions guide her ever nearer to locating her brother–but they also bring her closer to destruction as those who want to kill him track her footsteps.
With her faith in tatters, all hope flees. Will her brother finally surface? Can he save Cara from the truth about Rourke… a man she’s grown to love?
