In the midst of end-of-war celebrations, Sarah discovers her betrothed was keeping a devastating secret in Colleen Coble's A Heart's Disguise. Will Sarah leave her dying father’s side for the only man she’s ever loved? And what plans are forming in the jealous heart of Ben Croftner?My Review: Colleen Coble is one of my absolute favorite authors. Her stories are always full of twists, turns, intrigue, romance, and the Lord. So I jumped at the chance to review her Journey of the Heart series. From the first page of this book, I was hooked. If you've read Where Leads The Heart, then this story will be familiar to you. That being said, I look forward to re-reading this fantastic story!
Sarah Montgomery is someone I connected with instantly. She is going through her life the best she can after her heart was shattered at the news of her fiance's death. Rand Campbell has survived the horrors of the war, only to come home and find out everyone thought he was killed in action. He is broken, angry, and trying to heal. In true Coble fashion, Ben Croftner provides the perfect twist to the story.
As for the message, since this is just book one of six, we don't delve too much into the spiritual. We learn that Sarah is angry at God for taking her well-ordered and planned out life and turning it upside down (really, though, who wouldn't be!). Rand is trying to put his life back together and looking to restore his faith in the God of his childhood.
Overall, this book ends with a surprising cliff-hanger and I look forward to reading more in this series.

A Heart’s Disguise (Thomas Nelson, March 2015)In the aftermath of the Civil War, a young woman searches for her lost love at the edge of the West.
The Civil War has destroyed Sarah Montgomery’s marriage before it’s even begun.
After Sarah receives word that her fiancé, Rand Campbell, has been killed fighting for the Union, her brothers and ailing father persuade her to pledge herself to Ben Croftner—despite her strong misgivings. But when Sarah finds out that Rand is in fact alive—and that Ben Croftner knew it—she indignantly breaks off the engagement and goes in search of Rand.
But Ben Croftner does not take rejection lightly—and a single woman with a sick father makes an easy target. When Sarah is abducted by her treacherous fiancé, Rand finally comes to her aid . . . only to reveal that he has been posted at Fort Laramie, Wyoming, and intends to take her there as his wife.
But could Sarah leave her dying father’s side for the love of her life? And what plans are forming in the jealous heart of Ben Croftner?
