Historical Facts Wonderfully Explored.,

This review is from: Follow the Heart (Onyx) (Paperback)
Now this is the way to appreciate history. In "FOLLOW THE HEART," Anita Mills holds her reader spellbound, yet delivers an outstanding history lesson.
Sarah Spender was the girl from the neighboring estate. Always playful, Sarah fascinated Devin Hastings, Viscount Audley, and his brother Captain Adam Hastings. Upon her father's death, Sarah finds herself penniless and destitute. Both brothers make an offer. The viscount offers Sarah a position as his mistress, while Adam offers Sarah marriage. In a quiet ceremony with few spectators and no pageantry, Sarah becomes Mrs. Adam Hastings. Standing as his brother's witness, the viscount realizes his grave blunder, but it is too late, the lovely Sarah now belongs to his brother. The year is 1756 and Adam is a soldier in his King's army. His assignment - to go to the colonies and protect England's colonized territories against French aggression. Sarah must remain in England with Adam's family, a family that includes the viscount. Now, this author truly begins to weave her magic, and what sorcery. Using her immense talent, Mills plunges her reader into the wondrous state of puzzlement and adventure. The lead question is -- who will hold Sarah's heart in the end? (No fair peeking ahead!) This is outstanding storytelling. Anita Mills was one of the first writers to lure me into the world of romance reading. Recently, I read this author retired after publishing "BITTERSWEET." Therefore, I will take this moment to thank Ms. Mills for all the wonderful adventures she has given me. Forever, her books will have a revered place on my keeper shelf.

This review is from: Follow the Heart (Onyx) (Paperback)
I found the male character not that interesting and liked the antagonist more. It was a story well told but I found myself skipping some more tedious part of the plot. The ending was not what I was hoping for. Devin should have got a better ending. I do like the author's book and they make for intelligent reading.
