Grianan: A profoundly moving story set against the beautiful background of the Scottish Highlands

Perthshire Cycle #2

by Alexandra Raife

Abandoning her ordered life in England after a broken engagement, Sally flees to Grianan, the beloved Scottish home of her childhood. Running Aunt Janey's remote country house hotel is hard work, but at least it will be a clean break.Sally's brief encounter with Mike - gentle, loving but unavailable - cures the pain of her broken engagement even before she reaches the Highlands, but leaves a deeper ache in its place.Caught up in the rhythms and concerns of Grianan, Sally begins to heal, putting behind her not just her recent loss, but a whole lifetime of hurt and rejection. And when fate brings Mike into her life again, tragically altered, she has the strength and faith to hope that Grianan might help him too.************Readers are loving GRIANAN!'Another brilliant Alexandra Raife book' - 5 STARS'A beautifully uplifting story' - 5 STARS'A profoundly moving story in glorious settings with fascinating characters' - 5 STARS

A rollercoaster of a ride. Such brilliant characterization and a thorough understanding of the two main characters situations. The evident change in personality as the story develops is a work of art.

I read this when I knew I should have been reading the much more impressive O Caledonia … it is a very easy pleasurable holiday read, an old-fashioned romance, particularly suitable for anyone who knows and loves Scotland.
