Not my favorite. The setting is 1850 in Scottland, which I normally really enjoy, but this book's heroine lacked strength of character. The story line is pretty good with some suspense in outcome, but the jealousy of the heroine (Gillian) was enough to turn me off. Although it is more realistic of a true person, I like books with happily ever after. I read because I aspire to see good traits of people magnified. It just makes me happy that way.
That being said, there were other interesting perspectives going on. Arabella was living a form of feminism before its time as she apired to become a doctor. Grant (hero) is performing "electric" experiments which was also unique to this era.
If you're a Ranney fan, it's worth the read, but not (in my opinion)her best.
