The Awakening by Tamara Leigh

My review today is on the Medieval Romance, The Awakening. This is book seven in the Age of Faith Series. I have loved this series, in fact it is the only one I have bought. Most of the books I read are sent to me by the authors. This book is well written, heart warming, and full of faith. I really love the way Tamara writes. I know you will love this one too.
