Entitled: Book Review: Wind Dancer by Jamie Carie

Wind Dancer by Jamie Carie
Genre: Inspirational/Christian historical romance
Title: Wind Dancer
Author: Jamie Carie
ISBN: 080544534X
Publisher: B&H Books

Blurb: A love story beyond imagination …
Isabelle Renoir is different. A free spirit who dances alone in the moonlight as a praise offering to God, she’s more at home in the woods with her long rifle and knife than cooking and cleaning like the other women in her wilderness town.
But as the shadow of the American Revolution stretches to the frontier, Isabelle finds herself on a journey that may overwhelm even her fearlessness and strength. And when the raven-haired beauty meets mysterious Samuel Holt, sparks fly. It takes an unthinkable attack and capture at the hands of Indians to push them together in a fight against deep spiritual forces …
Forces no physical weapon could ever conquer.

Review: This is a gripping, fast-paced Inspirational/Christian historical romance. It has lots of adventure. The characters are well-developed and realistic. Isabelle is a strong, fierce woman that knows who she is and doesn't need a man to define who she is. When Samuel and Isabelle get captured by the Indians, I felt torn with how the Indians were portrayed, but then I reminded myself that the book was historically correct in their portrayal instead of today's politically correct one. Jamie Carie definitely did her research about the American Revolution and life during that time. I liked the Indiana connection, since part of it was located in Vincennes. I think readers that love strong historical stories will love this, readers that love a great romance will find a gripping love story, and the readers that love an Inspirational novel that provides a great story with a great message will also find plenty to enjoy and inspire them in their faith. I highly recommend this novel.
