Book Description

Proud and beautiful, Heaven came back to the hills -- to rise at last above her family's shame!

As Logan's bride, she would savor now the love she had sought for so long. And free from her father's clutches, she would live again in her backwoods town, a respected teacher and cherished wife. But after a wedding trip to Boston's Farthinggale Manor and a lavish, elegant party, Heaven and Logan are persuaded to stay...lured by Tony Tatterton's guile to live amidst the Tatterton wealth and privilege. Then the ghosts of Heaven's past rise up once more, writhing around her fragile happiness...threatening her precious love with scandal and jealousy, sinister passions and dangerous dreams!

Review

Praise for Viginia Andrews: 'Beautifully written, macabre and thoroughly nasty! it is evocative of the nasty fairy tales like Little Red Riding Hood and The Babes in the Wood, with a bit of Victorian Gothic thrown in. ! What does shine through is her ability to see the world through a child's eyes' Daily Express 'Makes horror irresistible' Glasgow Sunday Mail 'A gruesome saga! the storyline is compelling, many millions have no wish to put this down' Ms London 'There is strength in her books -- the bizarre plots matched with the pathos of the entrapped' The Times --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This review is from: Fallen Hearts (Casteel Saga) (Mass Market Paperback)

I was suprised when I first read virginia andrews books, I thought they'd be like the bold and the beautifull or something. I was really suprised to find that they were actually very well written with complex characters. I read the flowers in the attic series when I was 13 and the casteel seies at 15. I'm now 25 and picked up the casteel seies again, I really enjoyed heaven and dark angel but didnt even bother finishing fallen hearts! I was unsure until I looked here if it was written by her but was pretty certain it wasnt as the characters are completly different and the writng style is more suited to something you'd read in a romance book you'd pick up at the supermarket.

I liked Heaven in the 1st 2 books but she was stuck up and annoying in the 3rd. And when did it make any mention of Tony having feelings for her other then as a father in 1 and 2, all of a sudden in fallen hearts he became enamoured with her!

Poor Virginia Andrews having her name associated with such bad work, it would have been better to have left the series as it was. This book and the ones following it were obviosly written purely to cash in on the sucess of the earlier stories.

This is the third installment in the Heaven series, and excellent as always. Heaven is such a strong character, and faces challenges unimaginable. You just ache for Troy and her to be together knowing that they can't. Pick up a copy and get ready to read this in one sitting.

This review is from: Fallen Hearts (Casteel Saga) (Mass Market Paperback)

Heaven and Logan had a beautiful wedding. Heaven wanted to have a good relationship with Luke, whom she had known as her dad when she was little. Shortly after she got reacquainted with Drake Heaven discovered this ugly fact: Tony had forbidden Luke to have any contact with her. I would be very angry if somebody told anybody I wanted to hear from not to ever speak to me at all. What's worse was Tony assaulted Heaven again. Fanny did stoop low to try to turn Drake against Heaven. The truth eventually came out when it came to the hearing about Drake's custody. Fanny needed to learn the hard way that a relationship shouldn't be started with lies. I believe that Heaven is a more competent guardian for Drake than Fanny would be.
