At length, at length, I have thee in my Arms; Tho' our Malevolent Stars have struggled hard, And held us long asunder. -John Dryden's King Arthur.


What a fabulous book... or should I say book inside a book? Which apparently is based on real life? If you like romance and you like history.. you will love this. I can't believe it's taken me this long to read it. And of course, it's sparked another urge to return to Scotland. I'm afraid I'll just have to move there someday. I highly recommend this one.

Thanks Ira! Loved loved loved the book. I'm afraid to start the second one... could it possible compare? Have you read it yet?

Ira Yes, I read it. Unfortunately it wasn’t as good as this but the historical part still excellent. I selective read the contemporary part, didn’t like the heroine much. But you need to read the historical part, give a closure for this couple:)

Right! It's been a while! I haven't delved much into historical romance, but I'm a big Kearsley fan from way back. I'm glad you're enjoying her :)
