Book Reviews of The Secret
Book Review: No longer a secret
Summary: 5 Stars
You can get the plot in the other reviews, so I'll give you impressions. I love this book. It is laminated (clear contact paper) to keep it together. The Secret is a regular re-read for me. I seem to miss the characters. It has my favorite first line in any book, 'They became friends before they were old enough to understand they should hate each other'. The prologue alone was delightful! How often can you say that? Endearing, funny, very human characters and situations. Garwood has a way of understanding of how people really act sometimes totally illogically and emotionally.
In her book 'Randsom' you revisit these people as Brodrick's story evolves. I wish she would write some more historical books.
Summary of The Secret
Judith Hampton was as beautiful as she was proud and loyal. Her dear Scottish friend from childhood was about to give birth, and Judith had promised to be at her side. But there was another, private reason for the journey from her bleak English home to the Highlands: to meet the father she had never known, the Laird Maclean. Nothing prepared her, however, for the sight of the Scottish barbarian who was to escort her into his land...Iain Maitland, Laird of his clan, a man more powerfully compelling than any she had ever encountered.In a spirited clash of wills and customs, Judith reveled in the melting bliss of Iain's searching kisses, his passionate caresses. Perplexed by her sprightly defiance, bemused by her tender nature, Iain felt his soul growing into the light and warmth of her love. Surely nothing would wrench her from the affection and trust of Iain and his clan...not even the truth about her father, a devastating secret that could shatter the boldest alliance, and the most glorious of loves!
