Loved this book - it think its classed as a 'romanitc adventure' never thought i would be reading such material, but i thoroughly enjoyed it. Just a great love story, with a heroin and hero that were meant to be togehter, despite the circumstances that they foind themselves in!

This was the last in a trilogy of books, might read the others,,,,

Real good

The book had suspense and a love story. It was in England years ago and showed what life was like then

[Keren Lilley · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another galloping tale, very engrossing like the previous ones in this series. Enjoyed the character of Dewi, but the prolongation of their unspoken relationship became a little predictable, and then the ending was strangely rushed! I always enjoy reading Thompson's historical novels of Cornwall as I recognise occasional historical facts & stories I know, and find out about many more...

I don’t really like historical sagas but on holiday some years ago in Cornwall a local bookshop introduced me to this author who lived nearby and I’ve been a fan ever since. Great adventures, storytelling and romance

[Eve · Rating 1 out of 5]

An alright novel on the whole, however, I lost interest halfway through, not that it was particularly intriguing to begin with. Dewi was always going to end up with Nathan. There were a lot of chapters that could've been made into paragraphs, although mercifully the chapters were always short. The writing was always including points that I believe were unnecessary. There is not much to say of this book except that it was somewhat generic.


If you want to read a novel that will keep you on edge, read pride and prejudice, now thats a truly good historical romance novel written masterfully.
