I love this book. I really enjoy multi-generational sagas and it was definitely a cross between Out of Africa and Downtown Abby. The ending is definitely a surprise and I hope Lauren continues with this type of novel, I will read them all.
Read my full review: http://bit.ly/12VdwWDMy opinion: Gotta say that I went into this book with a bit of trepidation. I am not a fan of Ms. Willig's Pink Carnation series, so I had a bit of fear heading into this one to review. I am thrilled I did. I loved this atmospheric novel and the dark story w...

This is a story with life-changing secrets but, ultimately, lasting love.Clemmie Evans is a workaholic lawyer whose concentration on her job and her des...
If you’re familiar with Lauren Willig’s books, then you know she often combines narratives from the past with the present. The Ashford Affair isn’t any different and incorporates the narratives of both Clementine (in the present) and Addie’s (the past). This is Addie’s story, but in many ways, it’s ...
