An overly convoluted plot line, with numerous characters with their side plots and back stories. It is understandable, however, why this was necessary: to set up the next two books in the series. Overall, an enjoyable ghost story, and I plan to read the next installment.

As usual Jude Deveraux does not disappoint. I love her stories, they are such a comfort when I am doing chemo. Everyone should read her books.

I never (repeat... never!!) purchase books at their initial releases; I wait for the paperbacks. However this time I am buying the next one in this series as soon as I am finished with this review. Saddened to realize I am going to have to wait for the third one to come out.

A little drawn out but over all a good book.

Jude Devereaux lives up to her legendary writing! This book carries the infamous Montgomery,Taggert,Kingsley's along with it. I love the "old world" and the new. Best Author

Lovely story, can't wait to read others in the series.

Much too. Long and drawn out. Could have cut it in half. Had a hard time getting thru it

I laughed, I cried, I believe.

I have been reading this author for many years and have never been disappointed. This is no exception. A very very good read.

As with all Jude's books she is thoroughly entertaining. I do love the family genealogy and how she has incorporated the beloved characters of the Montgomery's and the Taggert's together. Am looking forward to her next books. I loved this book.
