If you're looking for a fast paced read, this novella should appeal to you.  Colleen Coble just has a special way of conveying God's love in her books.The time is 1875 and Miranda Leyton prepares to leave London, closing this chapter on her life.  She will join her brother, Nathan, in Australia.  Along with her, she carries important secret documents, sent by her brother, that she is to keep safe from any unscrupulous people.On the four month voyage, Miranda encounters many problems along with Doctor Phillip Jackson, whom she finds hard to like with his boorish mannerisms.  The Doctor's fiancee has just left him standing at the altar and he's vowed to never let another woman close.Lord Geoffrey Brewster is gentlemanly and seems very interested in Miranda and her family.  But, how does he feel about spiritual matters, and is he a God-fearing man?  These qualities mean more to Miranda than good looks and wealth.  And the story unfolds with many complexities that are resolved into a predictable ending.A relaxed, enjoyable read with a fast tempo.  I rated it 3.5 stars.
