Be sure to have a box of tissues when you sit down to read this. It was over before I knew it and left me heartbroken. I must read the other books!

"This book will break your heart, so be prepared for desolation and despair."-Authors note
Sorcha Dalais is an empath. Special abilities have been passed down to her family for generations. But 1500 Scotland is intolerable of witches and anything different could easily be confused for witchcraft.
When Sorcha was called upon by the Vicar to assist with the birth of his baby, she had no choice but to help. But when the baby was stillborn, she was unfairly accused of sorcery.

The Legacy's Origin: Dalais Clan's Fate (Enduring Legacy Book 1) by Dawn Brower is an intriguing, very emotional Scottish Historical Romance. This is the story of the Dalais family and their legacy. Caitrìona Dalais Guaire, Sorcha Dalais Creag, and NiallDalais. They are torn from their homes in the Middle of the night and put on trial for witchcraft, were they are declared witches. One of the siblings had the foresight to arrange for their children to get safety.
Well written, and well crafted. ...more

This is a novella that needs to be read
This novella needs to be read before any of the other books in the series, it's also free. It's heartbreaking even tho its fiction yiu know that this actually did happen many hundreds of years ago to ppl that were accused of witchcraft. I cried so hard just knowing those facts. The other books haven't come out yet they are by different authors and blend with this story, can't wait for those books to start going live, I pre ordered the first one which will b ...more

It was an interesting story, but not enough pull to draw me to the next in the series. I must have missed the crying part because I will cry over anything, but didn't. Why did it feel like they were so accepting of their fate, and that being burned alive wasn't horribly, horribly painful? It's a sad tale, to be sure, but more like an extended prologue.

This book was so heartbreaking and powerful that it was mind-blowing. An empathy that is accused of witchcraft but is not just Sorcha who will face injustice she will be joined by Niall and Caitriona. In five short chapters, this book will tell their tale and what they must do to protect those they love. Can you image how horrific it would have been to see your loved one burned alive? The witch burning, murders and torture were conducted by detestable and pure evil people and those that accused

Powerful and heartbreaking is how I would describe this first book in the Enduring Legacy series. What makes it so heartbreaking is that events like this actually did happen in an era where you were labeled a witch if you had any kind of 6th sense or so called "unnatural" talents. So many innocent lives were lost just because people didn't understand or were too scared. Dawn Brower does an excellent job of writing this origin and now I look forward to reading the other books in the series.

What an amazing start to a new series! The author brings strong characters and weaves a story filled with so many emotions it will break your heart. She brings the story to life with her vivid descriptions of the times,their beliefs and her characters. It's a quick read that moves fluidly and keeps you turning the pages and in the end leaves you wanting more. Looking forward to the next book.Highly recommend.

This was a short story introducing the children and their parents. It will be interesting to see how the following stories develop. I was glad that the author managed to create the tension and horror without going into graphic detail. I have purchased this but I received a copy via Booksprout and have voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A dark story drawing the reader in
Treachery and witchcraft continues in this short story. The family fled to France after their parents were murdered by the hunters. The age was brutal and this tale depicts it well. The author paints the age well. Recommended for fans who love history, and witchcraft.

A look at a time when trying to help others could lead to accusations of witchcraft. Often, led by those of fanaticism or jealousy, a mob rule is a group without a rudder to guide them, pure sheep mentality.

The writing was exceptional and I was intrigued from the first few pages. I was prepared to settle in for a nice long read, but that didn't happen as this book is only five chapters. Sighing. It was a delicious taste (except) from the full book which I hope to read.
