"Alec Carrick lost his wife in childbirth and now brings up his daughter Hallie and works on expanding his shipping business. When he receives a letter from Eugene Paxton, the son of a Baltimore shipyard owner, he goes to discuss a merger and discovers that the son is really a daughter.
I didn't really like this one, even if there wasn't anything explicitly wrong with it. Genny is supposed to be a strong tomboy, but she comes across as a child, just playacting. Her spinelessness got on my nerves, and I really wanted to see her do less panting and sniveling and grow a backbone. Alec is a total misogynist, but that fact is hidden by the fact that he is portrayed as being 'so understanding' but is really just wanting to put her in her place. The random amnesia plot twist was just odd. I felt like the author had these images of the characters in her head, but she couldn't execute them properly, and they really portrayed the opposite of what she intended."
"I love Catherine Coulter's FBI novels and am not a fan of historic fiction particularly romances set back in these distant era's. But this trilogy was a lovely surprise. I was enraptured from the first pages and could hardly put this book down or the ones before it. The entire trilogy was brilliant I thought, with plenty of steamy romance, some shocking moments, and lots of good story telling.
Catherine Coulter did not disappoint and wove a wonderful story that takes us over three books and three women's lives and how they are entertwined.
Fans of Catherine Coulter will not be disappointed. Lovers of romance, definately give this trilogy a try."
