I had plans to read this for Romance Book Bingo 2017, but I already read a book for Man in the Kilt, so this book is just something that I read for my own enjoyment.As a long time Julie Garwood fan, I have to say the saddest day for me was when she stopped writing her historical books. I have tried ...
3.5 helms Please follow me on my blog :) Review originally posted on Vellum Voyages I haven't read a historical by Garwood in ages & I was really surprised by "The Secret"! It made me realize just how far the historical romance genre has come in the last twenty-four years. We are spoilt for cho...
I enjoyed this book A LOT! This is not a big surprise because everything Julie Garwood writes is amazing.I'm giving this "only" four stars because of the romance.

You know that a book is good when you forget to eat your dinner; forget to feed the cat (but remember before yo...
The Secret had been on my TBR list for a long time and I was craving some good ol' historical romance, so I downloaded it blind (no sample) and gave it a try. I can see what drew readers to this story. it's simple and sweet with a writing style that was easy to follow. I thought that it lacked the...
