Helpful Score: 1
My love for historical/romance novels rates this 4 star. It was everything I expected in this genre, with the addition of suspense. A good read.

I did not enjoy this book. Though the story line was very good, I did not find most of the characters believable. It seemed that each character was either evil or perfect. Some of the characters swung wildly between good and evil.
The first of the series. Taylor escapes with her child from a cruel man. She leaves Liverpool to go to SOuth Carolina and meets the Marstons who save her. Kinda cool-sequel written bysister.
Great book. The last book written by the incredibly talented author Hilda Stahl before she died. The sequel to this book "The Winds of Catawba" was written by her daughter, Laurie Stahl.
