My Thoughts on Lawfully Innocent:

I have read Robin Helm before in her Austen works.  While this is written with the same voice we get to travel to a different time and place in Lawfully Innocent.

Benjamin isn’t the oldest so he’s not set to inherit his father’s estate.  Instead, he chooses to travel to America and become a US Marshall.  He’s not even thirty yet but life seems to be throwing him some significant curves. 

Can Benjamin do what God wants him to do with his life or is he doomed to follow the will of others?

Great read.  This read really quickly and is more of a romance than a mystery or even a good conflict novel.  There is some conflict but it’s small episodes and not a theme throughout the book.

Ben is a fun character who truly loves God and wants to see Him work in his life.  He does a great job as a marshal and definitely has an impact on those around him.

This is a short read.  It’s going to read quickly and then it’s going to be over.  I enjoyed it and think you will too.  I look forward to seeing what else Robin Helm is bringing out in the next year.

About the Author of Lawfully Innocent

Robin Helm’s books reflect her love of music, as well as her fascination with the paranormal and science fiction.

Previously published works include The Guardian Trilogy: Guardian, SoulFire, and Legacy; the Yours by Design series: Accidentally Yours, Sincerely Yours, and Forever Yours; Understanding Elizabeth; and More to Love. Ms. Helm also contributed stories to A Very Austen Christmas and A Very Austen Valentine.

Her life in (usually) sunny, small-town South Carolina is busy, but affords time for writing, reading, teaching and performing music, and playing games on her phone. (Would you believe she’s an elder in a war game? And she’s writing a book about it?)

More from Robin

I grew up in South Carolina during the 1960s and 1970’s when the Civil Rights Act of 1964 became law. South Carolina did not comply immediately, so I remember my doctor’s office with two waiting rooms, two water fountains, and two doors, both leading to the same doctor and the same examination room. It seemed very strange to me even then. I did not know any African American children, because schools, restaurants, churches, the town pool, the public health center, our neighborhoods – everything – was segregated.

When I was in high school, that began to change. At first, only a few African-American students came to my school. I really didn’t notice, because we all worked together. I have since looked back and realized the bravery of those students. They left their newly built high school, which was much nicer than the very old one I attended and came to a place where they knew almost no one.

In my junior year, our schools and all public buildings were desegregated. Our town handled it very well. Three high schools combined, but everyone kept doing the things they had done. That year, three sets of cheerleaders combined and three of each sports team came together. It was wonderful! We had cheerleaders all the way down the sidelines, and the captain’s position was shared. The school buses were desegregated as well, and I drove a route.

I have no bad memories of that time. There were no fights, no arguments, no violence of any sort.

This story is set in the mid-1840s in South Carolina, and it addresses what sorts of things had to happen before we could get to The Civil Rights Act and desegregation.
