I live in SW France for the lifestyle after a career in a UK Police Force. I have six published novels, three more in the pipeline and six plays that have been produced on stage. My screenplays portfolio contains seven feature length scripts with one about to go into production.
I write mainly Historical Fiction but I do other genres too. I don't do cop stories, I had enough of the real thing.
Adventurous and exciting, Passarinho and the Highlander is a well-written book full of vivid imagery, war, shipwrecks, murder, romance, and lies. Mr. Connor did a splendid job of writing out complete details allowing me to join the story rather than just observe it and what a story it is too! From the time the daughter Susannah decides to put a wicked plan into motion to the time it backfires, the story took off and had me riveted and on the edge of my seat. You can look forward to finding out how love and romance fits into all of this adventure and drama as you get to know the characters. The characters were largely likable and all were well fleshed out and most were integral to the plot.
All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and was so glad I chose to read it and would strongly recommend it to historical romance lovers.
