About this audiobook
In Acadia two young mothers, one British and one French, have become good friends, despite the enmity between their peoples. The French woman's baby girl becomes critically ill. Since the British woman has access to medical care denied to the French, they exchange infants. But, suddenly, the French are expelled from Acadia, and the women are unable to meet again. Separated by a continent, each mother raises the other's child as if she were her own. Now, 18 years later, the emotional and spiritual effects of the exchange are about to come to light. An Englishman is searching for his heir. Two young woman are searching for their heritage. And God's strength is waiting for them all.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5As Louise and Catherine's story continues, their daughters have grown up in the households of their "adoptive" parents, separated as infants from the parents who bore them by the trials of war. The Sacred Shore introduces the character of Charles, Andrew Harrow's older brother who holds the title of Earl to the lands where both were raised. He faces the prospects of dying without an heir and travels across the ocean to find a blood relative who can keep the family's lands within the family after he is gone. His quest leads him to places he doesn't expect and to a faith that he never knew existed. I read this novel after reading novel #3 so I'm not sure how much it would have compelled me to look to the next for further answers, given that the girls are reunited with their birth parents in this novel and originally that was what I wanted to find out about. But it is a good story, and having read novel #3, I am now eager to finish the series.
