A Promise for Tomorrow by Miranda Barnes is a wonderful book. It is a story about new beginning and new romantic interests. Just because one chapter in your life ends does not mean that life ends all together and this story shows the reader that second chances come around. Sarah, the main character, needed a change of pace so she quit her job, ended her relationship that was going nowhere and moved to a new place. In her new environment she found a new job, and made new friends. Sarah met India and became good friends which opened the door to meeting more people like Robert. The story will have you rooting for Sarah and Robert and their relationship.
The story was simply written but shows that people can take a chance on love when they have lost the one they love.
I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley for a fair and honest review.

Despite being one of the defining period in English history, it's actually a subject rarely touched upon: when I was at school, we were taught more about the American Civil War than about the English counter-part! Short of this series, I can't - personally - think of any other novels set in and around the same period.
Like Cornwell's [i]Sharpe[/i] series of books, the events of this are all set in and around real historical events: in this case, the storming of Cirencester, the siege of Lichfield and the battle of Hopton Heath. If I'm honest, I wasn't familiar with any of these events, which is something I've always enjoyed about this type of book: a chance to learn some new history while also enjoying a good read! :)

Sarah starts off a bit dubiously but don't worry. She comes into her own. She just needs to figure things out first. Casey is a wonder from the very start. I don't think there was a moment when I didn't like him.
There is mystery and plenty of steamy times in this book, although both Sarah and Casey fight it to begin with. I loved how Redclaw had Casey's back even though he was determined he wasn't part of them anymore.
This book has an amazing cast of characters, and once again, we had Ryker! Woot!!! With no errors that disrupted my reading, I was engrossed from start to finish.
I am loving the Redclaw Security series and have no hesitation in recommending both this book and the series. Brilliant!

The power of this one is watching first hand testimony of survivors that fill in pieces of a puzzle that should never have been a puzzle if not for the indoctrinated protection of a few outdated ideas of power at its very worst. The sadness is that a good soul had to die to prove it, and that it was almost certainly not special, but indicative. Listen to the contrast of how much the key victim was loved against how much the perpetrators were reviled, even though it took half a lifetime to bring it all to context.
