The quality of the story in itself is sufficient to carry this novel, but excellent writing and characterization pushes it up several notches - with special mention for Hester: a fizzing-with-life, believable and resourceful heroine if ever there was one * Daily Mail * Thrilling... Rugged scenery combined with even more rugged leading men and feisty leading ladies makes this a book that one can easily compare to Poldark... The intensity of the plot is only amplified by quite how much she makes you care about the characters it revolves around' * The Bookbag * Witty, exciting and heartfelt, the book had me hooked * Roaring Bookworm * An historical novel at its best... With fantastic characters like the strong heroine Hester and the charismatic Crow the author doesn't disappoint... You cannot ask for more in a novel of this genre. 5*' -- Rachel Bustin Readers will follow the story with bated breath to see what will happen next, as we cross over to various characters and their stories * Our First Year Here * A fascinating story with plenty of unexpected events, gripping scenes, treachery, bloody battles and political intrigues...
