It has been a very long time since I read a book set around the historical events at the Alamo. This split-time fiction novel uses an engraved ring to connect the 1835-1836 and current time storylines. The protagonist in both stories are brave, young women who have encountered brutality and loss, who are afraid to open up to others, but who long to do so. The current time story may open eyes and hearts to the children being sent alone to cross our southern border. Both stories are exciting, intriguing, and emotional. I give this book five stars.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of A Promise Engraved from Barbour Publishing via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
