ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: The Number of Love
Series: Codebreakers #1
Author: Roseanna M. White
Publisher: Bethany House
Release Date: June 4, 2019
Genre: Historical Fiction/Romance/Intrigue
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.

Willa Forsythe is both a violin prodigy and top-notch thief, which make her the perfect choice for a crucial task at the outset of World War I—to steal a cypher from a famous violinist currently in Wales.
Lukas De Wilde has enjoyed the life of fame he's won—until now, when being recognized nearly gets him killed. Everyone wants the key to his father's work as a cryptologist. And Lukas fears that his mother and sister, who have vanished in the wake of the German invasion of Belgium, will pay the price. The only light he finds is in meeting the intriguing Willa Forsythe.
But danger presses in from every side, and Willa knows what Lukas doesn't—that she must betray him and find that cypher, or her own family will pay the price as surely as his has.

MY THOUGHTS
This book was fantastic! It kept me on the edge of my seat and I had the hardest time putting it down. Of course, that makes the book great, but also keeps me from getting much done!
I didn't realize at first that this book somewhat tied into the previous series, but upon realization, that made it all the better. I was already familiar with some of the characters and felt like part of the family.
I loved the decoding part of the book. It was so fun to read about Room 40 and the deciphering they were doing there during WWI. I loved the characters, their personalities, their faith, and their stories. The mystery was intriguing and I wasn't able to quickly figure out all the details.
I don;t know if I have a favorite character. I guess, if I had to chose it would be Margo, but honestly, I liked them all, ironically even the bad guys (for the most part). I am still just soaking up the story, pondering parts of it, wishing I knew these characters personally, savoring the after-thoughts.
Roseanna has long been a favorite author for me. I probably read just about all of her books. She just seems to have a way with words that draws the reader in and makes you feel like part of the story. The locations and people come to life.
I was privileged to receive a complimentary copy of this book courtesy of publisher and author to read. I was not required to write a positive review and all opinions are my own.
