Welcome to the Blog Tour & Giveaway for The Number of Love by Roseanna M. White with JustRead Publicity Tours! Follow along with the tour for a special inside peek at how The Number of Love is connected to the author's previous book from another series, A Song Unheard. Scroll down for a fun giveaway!

Margot De Wilde has been given an amazing gift with numbers. They're how she thinks, how she prays, how she feels her emotions. With The Great War in full force, Margot's talents are being put to use as a codebreaker in Room 40 - the central hub of British intelligence.
Out in the field, agent Drake Elton is on mission to patrol neutral Spain and keep the Germans from using these peaceful cities and ports for their own gain. He can't get the girl with stunning dark eyes out of his mind, the one he met on his last trip home and who has now befriended his sister.
Through much danger and intrigue, Margot and Drake work with their respective abilities to help in the war effort. A colorful cast of side characters - including some actual historical figures - help this tale sing as it churns from one exciting event to another.
One thing that bothered me was there was a lot of cursing in this book. Nothing spelled out, but "he cursed" or something along the lines of "he used words her mother would never have wanted her to hear." I understand this is a war novel with a high-stakes plot, but it's my personal opinion that including these bits does not add anything to Christian fiction. Other than that, I found this to be an exciting read which easily kept me glued to the pages. The spiritual threads are strong and well-done.
I'd recommend this book for all who enjoy Roseanna M. White's stories or historical suspense in general. Although there are plenty of callbacks to Margot's introduction in A Song Unheard, this book works as a standalone and is the beginning of a separate series. I can't wait for Book 2, On Wings Of Devotion, to arrive early next year!
I received my copy of this book from JustRead Publicity Tours. All opinions in this review are my own.

Series: Codebreakers #1
Author: Roseanna M. White
Publisher: Bethany House
Release Date: June 4, 2019

Three years into the Great War, England’s greatest asset is their intelligence network—field agents risking their lives to gather information, and codebreakers able to crack every German telegram. Margot De Wilde thrives in the environment of the secretive Room 40, where she spends her days deciphering intercepted messages. But when her world is turned upside down by an unexpected loss, for the first time in her life numbers aren’t enough.
Drake Elton returns wounded from the field, followed by an enemy that just won’t give up. He’s smitten quickly by the too-intelligent Margot, but how to convince a girl who lives entirely in her mind that sometimes life’s answers lie in the heart?
Amidst biological warfare, encrypted letters, and a German spy who wants to destroy not just them, but others they love, Margot and Drake will have to work together to save them all from the very secrets that brought them together.
