About this listen

From the walled gardens of Charleston to the vast prairies of the American West, the saga of the Lazare family continues.

Charleston, South Carolina, 1840s. Unable to marry, Catholic priest Joseph Lazare and his soulmate Tessa Stratford risk a dangerous love affair, betting their lives on the ignorance of her husband and betting their souls on the forgiveness of God.

Young David Lazare, Joseph’s orphaned nephew and Tessa’s ward, struggles to make a life in Charleston. But David is haunted by secrets he’s determined to keep, above all a terrible choice he made as a ten-year-old boy on the Oregon Trail.

None of them realizes that two thousand miles away, a lost Lazare has found a new family in the rapidly changing American West. He wants only to be Cheyenne, but as white emigrants and soldiers threaten the people he loves, his blond hair becomes a question he must answer—or die trying.

Lost Saints is the second book in the Lazare Family Saga quartet. If you like character-rich dramas, vivid period detail, and heart-wrenching choices, then you’ll be swept away by this epic series, perfect for fans of The Thorn Birds and Outlander. The saga begins with Necessary Sins.

Selected as an Editors' Choice by the Historical Novel Society.

Contains mature themes.

Romance in the front, adventure in the back.

Quick review: Another excellently written and exceptionally performed novel. The novel has two connected stories to tell, the first romantic in nature while the second is more of an adventure. The novel is clearly well researched and includes historical events, but doesnt beat the reader over the head with historical trivia. The narration is absolutely brilliant.

The first half of Lost Saints picks up immediately following the events of Necessary Sins. The budding romance between Joseph and Tessa dominates the first half of the novel. Lost Saints contains notably more erotic and sexual elements than the first book. It is not a bodice-ripper trashy romance, but a story of love, and physical intimacy is a part of that. The romance is told beautifully, while a shadow of longing and melancholy looms in the shadows. As beautiful as the story is, I would have liked a little more action. I'm a simple man. I like explosions.

The second half is hard to discuss in detail without spoilers. It is an adventure story about finding yourself and the meaning of family. A lot of time is spent with Native American tribes. Battles are fought, horses are stolen, and threat of war between the Native Americans and white settlers looms. I could not stop 'reading' this half of the book. I just got lost in the world.

Still no space dragons. Maybe in Native Stranger.

Long boring sex episodes

A good story was completely ruined by long boring sexual interludes that did nothing to enhance the overall plot of the story. This series was long and difficult to get through

It’s basically 1800s porn

The story was basic and disgusting. I thought there would be more to it rather than pages and pages of descriptive sex scenes.
