My Review
I am honestly surprised this author has only one book out. This is just the type of book I love .
A gripping, page-turning epic historical romance novel. The writing style just flows so naturally you won't even notice the hours slipping by as you'll be so immersed in the reading of this brilliant book. The descriptions are lush and provocative as you linger in the fragrant jasmine gardens in the Maharajah’s palace.
Heartache,abandonment,love,disdain and loyalty are just a few of
the emotions encountered in this book. Sara Archer's life as a newlywed woman of a British official in India seems to be what she'll have to settle for even though he is controlling and doesn't give her the attentions she needs.
A chance meeting with the gorgeous and powerful
Ravi Sabran changes everything. He is the type of man that is rich and powerful and not accepted by polite society but no one will tell that to him face to face, the type of man that makes women swoon .
Will Sara follow her heart off the beaten path into the lush jasmine garden where Ravi Sabran is waiting and away from her bullying husband? Shocking secrets are revealed about Sara's birth .
A must read historical. I am looking forward to reading more books by this author as this book totally mesmerized me! Pub Date 21 Jun 2019 by Harper Impulse and Killer Reads I was given a complimentary copy. Thank you. All o[pinions expressed are my own.
