Crossed Lines

Written by Jennifer Delamere

Narrated by Bianca Amato

When romance finally blossoms in her life, will it grow in the right direction?

Emma Sutton knows she should be satisfied with her life. She has a position at London’s Central Telegraph Office, and behind her rented rooms is a small plot where she can indulge her passion for gardening. But ever since she was
orphaned as a child, she has longed for a family of her own and the stability and consistency it provides. Her deepest wish appears realized when a handsome engineer is thrown into her orbit and sends her a thrilling love note.

Mitchell Harris’s sharp wit and facility with a pen have enabled him to thrive despite serious obstacles. That the woman of his dreams works just two floors above his should make life perfect. But a childhood accident has left Mitchell
convinced he’ll never draw a woman’s affection, especially from someone like Emma. When his best friend—who once saved his life—falls in love with Emma too and asks for help writing her love letters, Mitchell must choose between desire and loyalty.

Title: Crossed Lines (Love Along the Wires #2)Author: Jennifer DelamerePages: 336Year: 2021Publisher: Bethany Pub.My rating: 5 out of 5 stars.Crossed Lines is the second book in the Love Along the Wires series written by Jennifer Delamere. I was hooked on the story when I read but a few words of a sample sent to my Kindle. I prefer hard copies of stories to electronic, so I purchased the book. At first, it was a little slow for me, but that is most likely because I am used to other types of genres. As I progressed through the book, I became intrigued in the era the story is set as well as the possible love triangle that was building.In the novel, two men are best friends having grown up together and through difficulties, forging a strong bond. Mitchell Harris is a wordsmith and hard worker, though the past has left a scar of unbelief on his heart. Christopher Newman is a brilliant engineer with good looks and charm gaining women’s attention until he tries to speak to a lady, then he finds expressing his heart with words difficult. The story gets more intriguing when Christopher asks for Mitchells help in expressing his heart to Emma in writing. Both men desire to court Emma, Emma wants one for a friend and thinks she is in love with the other. Who will ultimately prove to be the man to fill Emma’s life with the adventures she has always desired?Throughout the pages it was entertaining to see how these two men wanted to win the heart of Emma. However, the way they decide to go about the task brings about a climax not just in finding out who may win the fair maiden’s heart, but the motive in their own hearts. Emma Sutton is a character who wants the desires of her heart, a home and family. Her faith keeps her grounded in waiting on God’s timing.The novel highlights the theme of faith and believing in God’s love no matter what life’s circumstances may be. Emma is a wonderful woman who exhibits love because of the love she knows God shows her, even though life can be challenging. Mitchell’s heart is revealed in the story aa he has to decide whether to draw near to God or not.The tale was a nice change of pace from what I normally read. It is a tale of hope, change, challenge, fun and friendship. I hope others will take time to enjoy the story. I haven’t read the first book in the series yet titled Line By Line, but now I plan to do so.I hope the next book in the series shares Rose’s story. You’ll learn about her when you read the book. Enjoy the tale!Note: The opinions shared in this review are solely my responsibility.

What a unique story about a love triangle! The romance in this novel is endearing and engaging. I really enjoyed the characters as they muddle through romance and learn about second chances, truth, and misunderstandings. I always enjoy novels with characters that are realistic and believable! I loved reading about their spiritual growth in the story. The plot is intriguing and interesting, and the setting is beautifully told and easy to visualize. Although this novel is part of a series, I think it stands very well on its own. Overall, I enjoyed this book and look forward to the next one!I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. Opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.

This is a wonderful story that incorporates some aspects of Cyrano de Bergerac. Emma and Mitchell are wonderful characters that need to learn that looks and flowery words are not all there is in a relationship. I enjoyed learning about some of what Christopher did in his job also. I hope that the next book in this series will let us learn more about Rose and Christopher. I received a copy of this book from the author for a fair and honest opinion that I gave of my own free will.
