K. R. P. S. (THEkrps) reviewed on
If you are seeking a synopsis, please look elsewhere. This book is a bit deeper than what I'm used to from Ms. Wiggs. More recently, I've read several of the Lakeshore Chronicle series, which were a bit more fluff in comparison.
I liked the references to history and thought that great stories could be told about that without the present intruding.
I was a little concerned with Tess's obsession over her lack of family as she was raised by her grandmother--her family--but she seemed to long more for her absentee mother.
I didn't like Isabella's weakness to face the inevitable. What's with the reference to a broken heart? Was there a man in her past that threw hers back at her?
And then there's Dominic. Who was just about perfect, right?
The supporting cast had their ups and downs, but I was rooting for them throughout. The writing was spectacular and I felt that I was with all the characters throughout the book and was worried they'd come out all right. Of course all books must come to an end and in the end, there's a happily-ever-after, right?
