About the Book
In this third and final book in the Edwardian Brides Series, you’ll be swept away to England and France in 1915 as the Ramsey family and their staff and friends face the dramatic challenges and losses of World War One, yet they also experience the hope and triumph that comes as they put their trust in God to carry them through. Penny Ramsey helps the family welcome a group of orphaned children to Highland Hall, but she soon discovers caring for them is more difficult than she’d expected. She writes to Alex Goodwin, a daring British pilot, who chases German zeppelins across the sky over the Front Line in France, and longs for the day she will see him again. You’ll be delighted by two pure and heartwarming romances: Penny and Alex, and Lydia Chambers and Marius Ritter, a lady’s maid and a prisoner of war. But most of all I hope you’ll be inspired by the characters’ examples of trusting God through the trials they face.
Fans of “Downton Abbey” will find many of the same elements in this series: A wealthy, aristocratic family living on a large English country estate with romance, conflicts, and family drama; and loyal servants with troubles and heartaches of their own. About the Author
Carrie Turansky has loved reading since she first visited the library as a young child and checked out a tall stack of picture books. Her love for writing began when she penned her first novel at age twelve. She is now the award-winning author of fourteen inspirational romance novels and novellas.
Carrie and her husband, Scott, who is a pastor, author, and speaker, have been married for more than thirty-six years and make their home in New Jersey. They often travel together on ministry trips and to visit their five adult children and four grandchildren. Carrie also leads the women’s ministry at her church, and when she’s not writing, she enjoys spending time working in her flower gardens and cooking healthy meals for friends and family.
She loves to connect with reading friends through:

In the final instalment of the Edwardian Brides, A Refuge at Highland Hall, award-winning author Carrie Turansky has crafted a story that will capture the heart of readers, both male and female from page one. Taking place during WWI, this story is about friendship, love, and overcoming life’s challenges. Bringing to life the realities of war, this beautifully written novel, with characters that readers will adore, Carrie has brought to life a time in history that will speak to the heart and touch a deep place in the soul of her readers. I would recommend this novel to lovers of deep and inspiring historical fiction and a sweet romance story.

I have read book 1 and 2 in the series and have anxiously been awaiting book 3! I can't say I have a favorite, but I liked how the first two books tied together. I love Carrie's clean writing style and how involved I get with the characters and their happiness!
