The Golden Cross

By Angela Elwell Hunt – Aidan O’Connor may be a poor barmaid but she’s also a gifted artists. When a famous cartographer takes her on as a student,Aidan is swept into an adventure that will bring her back to her heavenly Father,and into marriage with the love of her life.

My thoughts on the book:

I absolutely loved this book.  I couldn’t put it down.  The storyline was very fast pace so you wanted to keep reading.  I was worried about being able to follow the book since I have not read the first in the series,The Silver Sword.  This book had everything. 

I adored how Angela Elwell Hunt transitioned from the present day to the year 1642 in the first chapter.  It was beautifully written and believable.  She managed to peak my interest in that chapter by itself.  The story starts out with Kathleen O’Connor,in the present day researching her ancestors.  Kathleen is researching her ancestors and finds that her descendents were very strong women who fought for what was right for women.  She feels that it is her responsibility to tell the tale of her ancestors.

Angela Elwell Hunt created a story mixed with characters that are rich and well rounded.  The dialogue between the characters was believable.  Aidan O’Connor may have been a poor barmaid but she had the determination to leave her family to make something of herself.   As a reader,you can’t help but champion Aidan’s way as she fights to pull herself out of the life of the lower income.  You watch as she is unable to see the natural ability she has to draw that the famous cartographer,Schuyler Van Dyck,sees she has.  You champion Mr. Van Dyck as he steps outside of common tradition to help and encourage her.

So the journey begins.  The story takes you on an ocean voyage where Aidan’s accepts her faith in God again,through treacherous deeds,sorrows that she must suffer,and finally to finding an unconditional love that she never knew existed.  It is an incredible journey that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

I would recommend it to everyone.  I haven’t read the first book of the series but I am planning to the first chance I get.
