Customer Reviews

This was a good book

I didn't realize I was reading the 3rd in the series but I still enjoyed this one on its own. The 2 leads were great! Part of it started to lag but it picked back up. Emma really was a great villian! I also didn't realize this was a husband/wife team writing it. I will look for more from this duo.

enjoyable Georgian romance

In 1771 heiress Gwyneth Douglas writes adventure tales under a pseudonym. Her life seems fine though she frowns at the licentious behavior of her older married cousin Emma, who she once adored as a role model. However, tragedy strikes the family when Emma is found dead having fallen from the side of a cliff. Though her husband survived the same fall, everyone including his two younger siblings assumes Lyon Pennington killed his spouse.A few years later, a desperate Gwyneth has decided to elope with a friend Allan Ardmore to escape her aunt and that of a blackmailer. Lyon's brother David, just returned from military duty, intercepts her. He accompanies her on her trek to Scotland and the passion that had been at the surface when Emma died, erupts as they fall in love with one another However, her aunt blames his brother for her daughter's death and rogues like Allan and the blackmailer want to gain control of Gwyneth's loot so that killing David is quite acceptable.Fans of Georgian romance will take immense delight with the entertaining DREAMS OF DESTINY that completes May McGoldrick's fine trilogy. The story line is action-packed, but at its best when the lead couple banter and try to trump one another. The villains don't match up to the heroic duo, but provide enough diverse tension so that the audience receives a wonderful historical tale of love conquering all.Harriet Klausner
