4.5 starsGreat historical romance fiction. I loved it! (though I did skim some of the historical bits, they just we so long and I didn't care enough to concentrate on them).Summary: Carrie settles into the shadow of Slains Castle in Scotland, creates a heroine named for one of her own ancestors,...
This was a really good read. I couldnt put it down. However, I was a little disappointed with the story. I wish there was more interaction between the main characters before they connected. The author seemed to spend more time on the main character flashing to the present rather then developing t...

I am already a huge fan of Susanna Kearsley's book and thought I had read them all. Then I discovered this earlier book of hers published in 1998. It is not rated as high on here as some of her others, but it just happened to be the right book for me! So five stars because I could not put it d...
Mariana has made me an instant fan of Susanna Kearsley and after finishing her novel, I'll be sure to look for more works by this author. This was such a beautifully written novel and at times it felt reminiscent of Daphne du Maurier's writing as Kearsley does a masterful job of depicting her se...
