Once you start reading “My Brother’s Crown” you will not want to put it down. This book, written by Mindy Starns Clark and Leslie Gould, will capture your attention from the very beginning.
There are surprises around every corner as you read this book. The authors really brought the characters to life in each of the settings. This book was so very interesting and I am definitely looking forward to reading the next book in this series!
My Brother’s Crown combines modern day happenings in Virginia with a story from France in the 1600’s. The connection is shown in an intriguing and detailed way. I learned a lot about the history of the Hugenot’s.
There is much to be learned from reading this great story. I look forward to the next book in the series.
My Brother’s Crown is like reading two books in one as the story goes back and forth between 1685 France to present day Virginia following cousins story and a quest to uncover their family’s mysterious past and the impact it has on the future.
This is an amazing historical story full of suspense, mystery, religious persecution, romance, danger, love and strong faith. The strong characters drew me into their lives and had me on the edge of my seat during the tense, dangerous scenes and kept me turning the pages to find out what would happen next. The author’s research is shown in the historical details and descriptions and I could picture everything in my minds-eye as I read. A well written and captivating story.
This is a compelling look at life in 1685 France.
I am amazed at the vast cast of incredibly well developed and written characters there are in both time periods. A number of them grew and matured over the course of the story which was wonderful. I really enjoyed reading of the faith and belief in God that was contained, especially in the historical segments.
I was fascinated with the pamphlet that had survived from 1685 and how it was used to tie the two time periods together. Before reading this book I had only heard the term Huguenots. I didn’t know anything at all about them or the persecution that they faced. Now that I have read this wonderful book I think I will be trying to learn more about their lifestyle and the trials they faced as a group.

“I have read almost all of your books and some how missed this one. I am looking forward to getting it.”
“This is a very different genre than I normally read, but the history and struggles in 17th century France were very interesting, and I enjoyed both time frames that were represented in this very educational book. I highly recommend reading My Brother’s Crown. It’s an excellent depiction of a time frame that is deep with controversy.”

“My Brother’s Crown came in the mail yesterday and I completed it today. It was such a great read!! I love historical fiction, and I especially love it when it is combined with a modern day connection. The story line is very interesting, one I wasn’t familiar with, which provoked me to research the Huguenots. My only complaint….now I have to wait for the next book in the series.”
"Being somewhat of a science buff and puzzle lover, I enjoyed the two main characters and their chemistry and puzzle solving. I have enjoyed all of the books these ladies have coauthored, but I believe this one is my favorite. I cannot wait for the next book!"
—Liz Grider

—Carol Clark

—Sherry Crockett
"Mindy Starns Clark and Leslie Gould are gifted authors in their own right. But there is a certain kind of literary magic that occurs when the two collaborate on a novel. My Brother's Crown has left me begging for more!"
—Susan Scott Ferrell
"My Brother's Crown is a fantastic read that kept me turning the pages even when I kept telling myself, 'I'll finish this chapter then put it down.' I ended up reading a lot more than one chapter in a sitting. I especially enjoyed the historical aspect and how seamlessly the authors tied it in with the present day story. This is a wonderful book that I highly recommend."
—Kimberly Rose Johnson
"My Brother's Crown is absolutely brilliant! It is one of the best books that I have read in a really long time. Mindy Starns Clark and Leslie Gould have delivered a masterful book with great characters—this collaboration is perfect! The storylines running back and forth from the past to present made for such an enjoyable read. I highly recommend it for anyone. The ending left me wanting more. Can't wait for book two!"
—Christy Hayes
"I really enjoyed this book! I love historical fiction and this book did not disappoint me! Previously, I didn't know much about the plight of the Huguenots, so this intrigued me. I appreciate the authors sticking to the morals of the Christian faith when they were writing this book. They showed in many ways how we as Christians today, should live our lives in the great and small ways. I fell in love with the characters of this book and can't wait to read more of their story!"
—Becky Waymire
"My Brother's Crown offers two stories in one novel, with the 18th-century saga of persecuted Huguenots entwining with the modern tale of mystery and family. These alternating adventures combine for a compelling read. We eagerly await the next book in the Cousins of the Dove series."
—Mary Hake
"I read My Brother's Crown and enjoyed the mix of historical fiction with the real life challenge of getting over childhood trauma in order to live the life of an open heart to people and God's good gifts to us.

—Diana Meadowcroft

Mindy and Leslie do not disappoint. This book is reminiscent of Mindy’s first series the Million Dollar Mysteries.
The present day characters are very believable. I could not put the book down. It is classic Mindy Starns Clark - Romance and Mystery. The historical portions are also very interesting.
I couldn’t wait to start the second book in the series.
