Helpful Score: 1
am a big fan of stories from this era, and I really enjoyed all four books in this series. This one in particular had a really interesting plot that I would not have expected. I live in reality... I don't need a story to further dwell on that. I enjoy that Lori's books are so ideal, so perfect. I don't mind that the characters aren't "believeable" as some have criticized. That's exactly why I read them! It's fun to escape. And yet in the story there are neat twists and turns. They aren't completey predictable. I recommend this book highly. And I enjoy that the characters you meet as the series goes along are main characters in later books. That is a very neat aspect. By the time you read the later books, you've developed a "caring" for the characters and can't wait to see what happens in their lives. I do recommend reading the books in order. I skipped book 2 because I didn't own it and read it last. I wish I hadn't. It isn't necessary, but I think you miss out when those characters pop up in the later books.
A story of betrayal and learning to trust. A story of God's sovereignty in every moment of life.
This was a great series, really enjoyed it!

A nice finish to the series.
I am reading this series out of context but it does not seem to matter. I have read the first in the series also and now I am looking for Bk 2 and Bk 3. Lori Wick is a superb author. Her books are not only intertaining, but they also are a teaching tool for Christians. The messages she passes on are valuable for everyone.
This is a very good books as is the usual with Lori Wick, I cna't wait to get started with the second book in the series. I would recommmend this book.
I gave up on this boring romance on page 70, after Edward Steele (brother of Cassandra of "The Visitor") finds a woman, Niki, posing as a man on a cruise to Lisbon, Portugal. All the intrigue in the world couldn't make me keep my eyes open through this book.
I thought this book was great! I have read the entire series and loved everyone.
Great romance series!
Edward Steele has enjoyed a great adventure in Africa with his brother, Henry. Now Henry has returned to England...
I am reading this book now and I cannot put it down. I loved the English Garden series.
