Celebrate Lit Blog Tour: The Secret Life of Lady Evangeline by Jan Davis Warren

Book:  The Secret Life of Lady Evangeline

Author: Jan Davis Warren

Genre:  Christian Historical Romance

Release Date: September 22, 2020

Everyone believes Lady Evangeline is dead, so why not let them? Her survival depends on it.

After escaping from assassins and healing from her injuries, Evangeline Stanton finds refuge in a crumbling abbey. Her physical scars are nothing to the wounds left by the death of her daughter and abandonment of her husband. She spends most days disguised as Sister Margaret Mary, but when necessary, she dons the disguise of the recently deceased bandit, the Fox, to steal from the rich and help the starving children and widows who come for aid.

Lord Henry Stanton still grieves the death of his beloved wife, Evangeline. Raising their young daughter is now the most important role in his life, even though the child serves as a daily reminder of the love he and his wife once shared. He may never shed the weight of his guilt for not protecting Evangeline from the band of outlaws who killed her, as well as the lies sown by his sister-in-law, which he allowed to separate him from his wife just before her death.

When Henry’s ailing father-in-law sends an urgent request for help to manage his lands, he has no choice but to take his daughter with him to Castle Brighton. But the nun who comes to care for the sick man catches Henry’s notice from the first moment he catches sight of her. When the life of their precious daughter is threatened, can they overcome the lies and secrets of the past and join forces to save their daughter before it is too late?

The Medieval time Period is not normally a Genre I normally like to read. 

I was intrigued by the Cover Photo and Synopsis. I was not disappointed 

in taking the chance to reading this book! 

Evangeline Stanton is supposed to be Dead and her Husband Lord Henry 

abandoned her and their daughter is also believed to be dead. Although, 

Evangeline is living a double life and all 3 are alive. Evangeline is living her

 life a Nun, Sister Margaret Mary. Lord Henry's father-in-law is falling ill and calls for help in caring for him. Sister Margaret Mary arrives and Lord Henry seems to notice her. Through many twists and turns, it is discovered the Nun is actually his Wife. Can the 2 reconcile and care for their daughter together? Will their be a family unit again?? 

I really enjoyed the book, couldn't put it down once I started. The many twists and turns made it seem like a Mystery. The Romance part of it was very unique, as the 2 were already married. I truly wasn't expecting the greatness in this book and I am looking forward to reading more books in this series!

Hello Dear Reader,

That you are reading this means you come from some hearty and courageous ancestors. Over thousands of years, they survived good times and bad, plagues, famines, wars, and all manner of tribulations. No matter how many different places around the globe your ancestors ventured, or where they lived and died, you are living proof they existed.

 

This thought never crossed my mind while writing and winning awards with contemporary romantic suspense, westerns, and even sci-fi. It wasn’t until Lady Evangeline stirred me with her story that I was lured into writing about the Middle Ages. I was even more surprised when I won RWA Faith Hope & Love chapter’s, Touched by Love historical category and the overall award with The Secret Life of Lady Evangeline. Thus began my next exciting adventure, for I had never written a medieval.

While doing research for the time period, I was humbled by the revelation that I’m alive because of ancestors further back than my genealogy has thus far revealed. They survived not only the medieval era, but many other difficult, even horrific times over the centuries before my birth. You and I are truly blessed by our ancestors’ perseverance. We are alive at such a time as this for a reason. Help us Lord to be the light so others might find You and through You life eternal.

Blessings!

Jan Davis Warren
