To Love a Falcon

Author: Nancy C. Williams

Publisher: Celebrate Lit

Release Date: November 7th, 2023

A fabulously written historical fiction novel that kept my attention and had me entranced with these characters and what they were going through!

Katya Morozov is an aircraft mechanic in Russia waiting for her fiancé, Mikhail to return so they can start their life together. When she gets an assignment sending her to the remote area around Siberia, she fears she will never see her love again. Katya and her father have been secretly helping protect persecuted Christians and she doesn’t know the threats that await her because of it. When she meets Yuri Sokolov, a test pilot, she is immediately attracted to him, but she will not betray her word to Mikhail, who she doesn’t know has already been killed because of his faith. Katya meets a mysterious woman in the woods who gives her strength in her faith when she needs it most to endure the hardships she is about to face.

Normally a historical fiction novel set in Russia is one I would pass on, not something that usually holds my interest. I picked this one up and could not put it down. Nancy Williams has done a fabulous job of crafting a story that not only held my interest on a topic I normally don’t pick up, but she also had me caring deeply about these characters and what they were going through. I couldn’t wait to see if Katya would survive with others going against her and if the spark between her and Yuri would develop into something more. This is a book with heart, faith, and a great message. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a story that will pull at their heartstrings and leave them sitting satisfied from a well-written story.
