Critic reviews

“Klassen expertly infuses her … inspirational tale with a gothic atmosphere, resulting in a sweetly intriguing romance worthy of Victoria Holt.” ( Booklist)

well written, complex plot, very enjoyable

I like the depth of the story, it was not a vehicle for multiple sex scenes, but a well rounded story with engaging characters.
