I am such a huge fan of any kind of retelling in YA novels, so when I had the chance to review this Snow White retelling, I immediately jumped on it. Who doesn't love a good fairytale with unique, new twist? Well, that's definitely what you get wi...

I wasn't sure I'd like the use of the classic Snow White storyline bu the author won me over. The sweet romance between Gabe and Sophie made the story. As Gabe rescues Sophie from her stepmother, the Duchess, and they escape to the cottage of the...

“Perhaps time is an inconsistent healer, but God can purge even the most painful memories.”

“Time blunts the pain and creates a mist over one’s memory — at least in the case of death and sorrow. Other types of pain linger longer.”

Wow, I have to say this was an AWESOME book! I've been so busy with our in home daycare and with Scouts that I've only just sat down and had time to think about leaving you a MSG about your book.
I'm SO excited! I just downloaded The Fairest Beauty!! I'll be busy reading as soon as I log off here!!!
Hahaha! It isn't my fault, Terry! My publisher thinks I should only release one book a year in this series, so they are holding them back! It's very frustrating to me too! The next one after The Fairest Beauty is also finished. I finished last April! But it won't come out until next October! Such is the publishing biz. :-(But it makes me very happy that you are anxiously awaiting them!!! Please don't forget about me in the long wait between books!!! I appreciate my readers so much! You keep me encouraged!
God bless!

I think it might have been, the exterior shot looks a bit like it- that's why I provided the photo for comparison. I have only been inside one or two times (normally I'm outside to watch the joust/tournament etc) but I think there are some objects on display from the owner the Duke of Norfolk/Earl of Arundel's collections and such.
The major disappiontment for me was finding out that most of the castle as it stands today is not Medieval but a Victorian rebuild. Cheaters.
Wow. Arundel Castle is beautiful. I would so love to visit it. Is it a museum?I don't really know which castle photo they used, but for the indoor shots with the model, they filmed those in Colorado Springs at Shrove Chapel, which is on the campus of Colorado College.
The Castle shown at the beginning of the Promotional video for 'The Healer's Apprentice' looks a lot like one that is a not far from my village, and which I have known since childhood. This is Arundel Castle in Sussex http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?num=10... the one I refer to.

Melanie, Just curious if your coming in my neck of the woods anytime soon for a book signing. I know it is pretty far away from you but thought I would ask anyway.
