I really enjoyed this book. It is the first of a trilogy set in the late 1800's. The story includes a wealthy family, a missing rare diamond and a little romance. I found this book by just grabbing something off the shelf at the library because my boys were being too noisy and I couldn't find what I was looking for but I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this author and will read more of her books.

I enjoyed this book like a guilty pleasure. It was so action-packed that I didn't realize it was a romance until I had almost read to the end.
Best quote: "I think you will agree that life's plans are not always tied up in neat little packages. Occasionally we find ourselves at unexpected crossroads with more than one opportunity from which to choose. Time itself is often the best indicator of which decision to make, for it can tell so many things that are now hazy"(389).

I just stumbled upon this trilogy at the library. They're listed under christian lit, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good and engaging they were. Set in the late 1800s in England and South Africa, they reminded me a little of Pride and Prejudice--and that's a extreme compliment! I definitely recommend them!

East of the Sun trilogy. Exciting novels about the diamond miners in South Africa. Love, mystery, danger and faith. It's all here for a good read.

I received this book for Christmas, and when I started reading it thought it OK but not terrific. But it got better as I read it, and I definitely want to read the sequels.

This book was slow going at the beginning, but by the end I couldn't put it down. Really enjoyed the series.
