Clean read.
Got interested late in the book. Liked Alexander and Mary chemistry that’s in chapter 14. However, this was the second time time I read material from this author and truly I don’t like her writing, it’s to wordy and a lot of description are unnecessary. Trying to follow the story with unnecessary information is very distracting. I wanted to give up reading this book so many times but I’m committed to a book regardless of its appeal, the only time I quite a book is of its improper nature and explicit sexual content. I only read clean books.

This was a lovely, quick little read. The author beautifully describes the area of East Lothian. The beginning of the book — really, the first third at least — had me thinking that the heroine was dense and that the plot would be weak. Despite this edition being replete with typos, I did end up enjoying the eventual plot twists that redeemed the story.

Helen has done it again
This is a read you won't regret. This series is wonderful.. Give all the books a try.. You won't regret a single one I couldn't get enough of this one. Once I got started I couldn't stop til I finished it.

Love wins in the end
Story is intriguing and lightly fanciful. Moves smoothly and reveals the plot gently! Couldn’t put the book down!!
Full development of each character as the story flows!

Enjoyable
This author has a way of taking you with her throughout the entire story
It was very unpredictable and I have to say that I enjoyed it very much

This author is not for me, I just didn’t like her style. I liked the H but the h was too immature and behaved in such a silly way that I lost interest in the story.
