Ring of Secrets by Roseanna M. WhiteMy rating: 💛💛💛
I love spy stories, because I always expect danger, action, double lives, intrigue and mystery. Though some to all of these categories was present, I did find the pace a bit slower than what I expected, and there was also a lot of characters to keep track of.
I really liked Winter and really felt for all her challenges - I really could not believe how her grandparents treated her. Bennett made this novel. I loved his personality.
It is also great to learn about history through fiction, and I learned a lot which enjoying this story about the Revolutionary War.
I was expecting the series to continue in the same period, so was surprised when the epilogue was 31 years later, though it won't stop me from continuing with the series.

About the book:
This exciting romantic spy novel from Roseanna M. White combines fascinating cloak-and-dagger secrets with a tale of love and intrigue during the Revolutionary War.
Winter Reeves is an aristocratic Patriot forced to hide her heart amid the Loyalists of the City of New York. She has learned to keep her ears open so she can pass information on British movements to Robbie Townsend, her childhood friend, and his spy ring. If she's caught, if she's hung for espionage...well, she won't be. Robbie has taught her the tools of the trade: the wonders of invisible ink, drop locations and, most importantly, a good cover.
Bennet Lane returns to New York from his Yale professorship with one goal: to find General Washington's spy hidden among the ranks of the elite. Searching for a wife was supposed to be nothing more than a convenient cover story for his mission, but when he meets Winter, with her too-intelligent eyes in her too-blank face, he finds a mystery that can't be ignored.
Both believers...and both committed to a separate cause. Will their faith in God lead them to a shared destiny or lives lived apart?
