Customer Reviews

A wonderful story!

Originally published in the U.S. as "Blow the Wind Southerly". This is very hard to find, but worth the search. Charlotte Fairlie was proud of her position as headmistress of Saint Elizabeth's-even if it meant a lonely life for someone so young and attractive. School intrigues and petty jealousies made it imperative that she not play favorites, and forced her to remain aloof...and alone! Then she decides to accept a student's invitation to visit her on a beautiful island off the coast of Scotland, and Charlotte finds herself falling in love with a handsome laird. But an ancient legend and a living girl become obstacles to an idyllic romance. Believable and an easy read.
