Numbers, Codes

'The numbers marched across the page in a glory all their own.' Margot De Wilde has a mind that most of us can't really comprehend and it is amazing to see how she can analyze and solve mathematical problems. Knowing that she has been blessed with such mathematical genius prompts Margot to volunteer to help break the codes that are being used in German telegrams during WWI and she spends long hours in a secret room, Room 40. The Number of Love features spies, biological warfare and danger that lurks everywhere but there is also romance and Margot's eventual understanding that she needs to learn to wholly and completely trust God. Margot has never felt a need for love, marriage, or children and even though she believes in God, she finds herself often wondering just what God's Plan truly is as this dreadful war continues. Drake Elton finds himself falling in love with 'the nameless young girl with the impossibly dark eyes' and he shows creativity and patience in his plan to win Margot's heart. A question is asked concerning how long two people should wait when they know that God has put them together for a reason and Drake simply replies "As long as it takes." And, still later, in a letter, he tells Margot "I want forever with you. I will wait a year, a decade, a century to make you my wife." White certainly knows how to write words that made me swoon! She also knows how to write about faith and family; reading Margot's ability to finally trust completely is very heartwarming. The doubts that she once had are replaced with the knowledge that God can be trusted 'not just with her well-being, but with her dreams.' Author Roseanna M. White has a knack for combining fiction with historical facts and she has succeeded in making The Number of Love another must-read for lovers of Christian historical fiction! It is very apparent that she devoted a great deal of time and effort in researching for this book and it is a fantastic way to begin a new series. I am looking forward to the next book in The Codebreakers series. I received a copy of this book from the author/publisher and all opinions in this review are my own

Another great story by a great author

I've loved Roseanna M. White's characters in each one of her books. I think, however, that Margot might be my favorite character of all. Margot is an unusual heroine. She has a genius-level intellect. Her obsession with mathematics and numbers leads to her looking at the world from a different viewpoint from most of us. She's somewhat socially awkward which makes her even more endearing. It was fun watching her develop a romance with Drake and discovering that she did indeed have feelings as well as logic and could fall in love. Drake won my heart when he started courting Margot in a way that helped her see how much he valued her unique gifts. There's mystery, suspense, and tension that builds all throughout this story. As both Drake and Margot race towards danger to save their friend and thwart an attack on London, I could hardly turn pages quickly enough. Don't miss the author's notes about her research for this story. I found the history behind the real code breakers fascinating. I also appreciated the faith aspect of this story. Both Drake and Margot find that even when circumstances are desperate and hard to understand, God is always there in time of need, waiting for His children to turn to Him for help. This is such an intriguing and inspirational story. If you enjoy Christian historical fiction, you'll love this one. I received a copy of this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

Codes, Love,

Roseanna M. White will always astound me as an author. How can she depict a different world in each novel? Read several of her books to understand the genius behind her words: every story is unique and her thorough research is obvious! Such talent! "The Number of Love" is the story of a young lady who uses numbers to make decisions, find peace, and make an impact during the Great War. Margot De Wilde's unique code breaking ability is vital to Room 40's successes, but life is not always as simple as following a code. She finds friendship with a new secretary, Dot Elton, a would-be-recluse, and the adventures they face together are life altering. Dot's intelligent and witty brother, Drake, is caught in the middle of a dangerous mission abroad. If he isn't successful, who can stop the impending danger? Margot and Drake's story has numerous thrills and more surprises than I was expecting, but what else would a book of codes and spies necessitate? If World War I stories, witty repartee, and a side of love excite you, then pick up "The Number of Love"! I received a complementary copy of this story from the publisher. I was not required to write a review. All opinions are my own!
