Reviews

[Connie L. Kennedy · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really liked this book!

The reviews were not so good on this last book of her trilogy, but I couldn't resist but to keep an open mind and am very glad I did. There could have been some more character development of some but I still enjoyed it. There are many editing errors as mentioned in reviews that were just plain sloppy but don't let it stop you if you enjoyed the first and second books as much as I did.

The third book in the Warwyck series follows the third generation in their seaside resort town.

[Margaret Snowdon · Rating 5 out of 5]

I've read a few of Rosalind Laker's books - for me, real page-turners -
not knowing what's to happen next - my kind of books - well worth a read.

[Margerm, Pat · Rating 5 out of 5]

A satisfying conclusion to the three generations' family saga. The first book in the trilogy is my favourite and one that I reread. This book has a "Romeo and Juliet" love story between two grandchildren of feuding families from book one. It also includes echoes from previous books, of a fighting match, of building a vision against an odds of love between a woman reminiscent of the h in book one and the h's married son. Tension builds, threads intertwine, secret love, hateful revenge results in page turning.
