 About A Heartbeat Away:When a band of runaway slaves brings Union-loyal Beth Bumgartner a wounded Confederate soldier named Joe, it is the catalyst that pushes her to defy her pacifist parents and become a nurse during the Battle of Antietam. Her mother's mysterious goodbye gift is filled with quilt blocks that bring comfort to Beth during the hard days and lonely nights, but as she sews each block, she realizes there is a hidden message of faith within the pattern that encourages and sustains her. Reunited with Joe, Beth learns his secret and puts the quilt's message to its greatest test---but can betrayal be forgiven?

My Review:
The story in A Heartbeat Away is wrought with heartache but also redemption. As we walk the road of
healing, both physical and emotional, with Joe and Beth we see the goodness and
faithfulness of the Lord. The depth of the details that S. Dionne Moore has put
into her story is exceptional. The history comes alive through her attention to
the facts and her careful working of the past.
Allow this book to sweep you away, into the time of canon
fire and soldiers. Moore has written a deeply moving novel that comes together
just as Beth pieces her quilt.
I received a copy of the book for review purposes only. I was not compensated in any other way for this review. The opinions expressed here are my own.
