She lost everything she loved.
He had everything she needed.
But could she find the courage to trust him?

Stepping from a battered coach on a rainy April eve, newly widowed Elisabeth Kerr must begin again, without husband or title, property or fortune. She is unafraid of work and gifted with a needle, but how will she stitch together the tattered remnants of her life? And who will mend her heart, torn asunder by betrayal and deception?
Elisabeth has not come to Selkirk alone. Her mother-in-law, Marjory Kerr, is a woman undone, having buried her husband, her sons, and any promise of grandchildren. Dependent upon a distant cousin with meager resources, Marjory dreads the future almost as much as she regrets the past. Yet joy still comes knocking, and hope is often found in unexpected places.
Then a worthy hero steps forward, rekindling a spark of hope. Will he risk his reputation to defend two women labeled as traitors to the Crown? Or will a wealthy beauty, untainted by scandal, capture his affections?
The heartrending journey of the Kerr women comes to a glorious finish in *Mine Is the Night*, a sparkling gem of redemption and restoration set in eighteenth-century Scotland.

Absolutely loved it!
I adored this book from start to finish! It is a stunningly well written modern re-telling of the story of Ruth- one of my favourite bible stories. It is set in Scotland in the 1600s following the Jacobite rebellion. Elisabeth and Marjory have lost everything following their husband's/sons into the ultimately lost cause of the Bonnie Prince. Elisabeth follows her mother in law to the town where she had started her married life to fall on the grace of a distant cousin, who she could have helped financially, but didn't. Being that Jacobites are being rounded up and tried for treason, the two women are in constant danger and must also rely on the goodwill of their neighbours not to turn them in, now that they have pledged their allegiance to the king. Enter Admiral Jack, retired, but a figure who still answers to his sovereign. A God fearing man, he chooses to help the women, rather than turn them over. His character just makes the best Boaz and Elisabeth, the ultimate Ruth. The whole story is very romantic and I highly recommend it!
