This review is from: Lady of Light (Brides of Culdee Creek, Book 3) (Paperback)

Lady of Light is the 3rd book in the Brides of Culdee series. Just when I think Kathleen Morgan has written her best ever, she comes out with one more. I appreciate the reality of flawed humans dealing with diffucult relationships. I also appreciate the reality of a great God who is ever present. In Lady of Light, Evan and Claire fall in love in a short period of time and marry. Not only do they deal with the problems of most newlyweds, but Claire brings along her troubled younger brother and immediately moves to a new country. In this new country, which is Evan's home, Claire deals with questioning in-laws and working daily with Evan's first love. Did he marry on the rebound? Does he really love her? Does he still long for his first love? When tradegy looms, the whole family must work together. But how!?! The complicated relationships must grow stronger or break. Even growth is not without pain and scars. A true love story because God is love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lady Of Light, January 6, 2002

This review is from: Lady of Light (Brides of Culdee Creek, Book 3) (Paperback)

I found this book on a shelf in a bookstore, thought it looked interesting and would serve the purpose of curing my boredom while sitting at home. Little did I know that this book would keep me enraptured so I could not put it down.
Normally I don't read books of this nature, but after realizing this is part of a series I went on a hunt for the other two and have not been let down thus far.

4.0 out of 5 stars Part of a series, but can easily be read on it's own, September 30, 2009

This review is from: Lady of Light (Brides of Culdee Creek, Book 3) (Paperback)

Kathleen's writing has such a charm and authentic feel to it that I can't help but like it. While there's not a lot in the story that is really historical per se, the old homes and other landmarks described pull you right back to the late 1800's. Also, her characters are all believable, each one having their own flaws and individuality. Even though the story was primarily about Evan and Claire, I found myself really enjoying Hannah's role in this book. If you've read the previous book in this series, you know Hannah's background and what occurred between her, Evan, and Devlin MacKay. While things could be awkward for Claire, Hannah quickly becomes her friend. She also gives Evan time to explain everything in their past, as painful as it will be.

Lady of Light is book 3 in the Brides of Culdee Creek Series. It's been awhile since I read the first two books in this series, and I was really afraid that I would just be lost the entire time when I started this book. Thankfully, I wasn't. Lady of Light, while book 3 in a 4-book series, easily can be read as a stand-alone novel.
