Publisher's summary

She lost everything she loved.

He had everything she needed.

But could she find the courage to trust him?

Stepping from a battered coach on a rainy April eve, newly widowed Elisabeth Kerr must begin again, without husband or title, property or fortune. She is unafraid of work and gifted with a needle, but how will she stitch together the tattered remnants of her life? And who will mend her heart, torn asunder by betrayal and deception?

Elisabeth has not come to Selkirk alone. Her mother-in-law, Marjory Kerr, is a woman undone, having buried her husband, her sons, and any promise of grandchildren. Dependent upon a distant cousin with meager resources, Marjory dreads the future almost as much as she regrets the past. Yet joy still comes knocking, and hope is often found in unexpected places.

Then a worthy hero steps forward, rekindling a spark of hope. Will he risk his reputation to defend two women labeled as traitors to the Crown? Or will a wealthy beauty, untainted by scandal, capture his affections? The heartrending journey of the Kerr women comes to a glorious finish in Mine Is the Night, a sparkling gem of redemption and restoration set in 18th-century Scotland.

Includes a bonus PDF with a listener’s guide, glossary, and map.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Blessed story!

Liz Curtis Higgs is a wonderful author and it is wonderful to listen to her narrate her own tale and give voice to her characters! I have been a fan of her bible study books for years and now her Christian fiction as well. Bringing tales from the Bible to a new era in time to show Gods wonderful timelessness!!

So good!!

I hesitated to purchase this because I didn’t really enjoy the narration of the previous book in the series. However, the narration felt much more natural in this one and I am so very glad that I purchased it! Such a great storyline with depth, beautiful characters, and redemption.

Second book is best!

I read a portion of Here Burns My Candle and struggled to keep reading. The historical facts seemed to weigh down the story a good bit. But this novel completely kept my attention. I loved how conflict did not come between Jack and Elizabeth but was built into the circumstances around them. It kept a sweetness about their relationship all the way though. He could always be the hero attentive to her every need. She could always see the goodness in him. I found myself running for the next chapter!

It's all in the details!

Would you listen to Mine Is the Night again? Why?

Would definitely listen again -love the story and the characters

What does Liz Curtis Higgs bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Liz Curtis Higgs brings personality to the characters - you can hear her love of the story and characters as she brings them to life.

If you could take any character from Mine Is the Night out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I would take Liz Curtis Higgs out to dinner - I met her many years ago when she was a program speaker - I would then talk with her about each of the characters and, of course, their relationship to the Bible characters on which they are based.

Any additional comments?

Finally, Liz Curtis Higgs' books available from Audible!

Experience this book immediately.

Liz Curtis Higgs should read every book ever written! What a purely delightful surprise. No digital robot sounding reader here. And the story completely takes you in: to every country side, into every room, and in technicolor! With all the emotions of fear, hope, grief, evil, and the truest of loves. I highly recommend.
