My Views on this Book:
Julie Klassen 's newest book, "The Tutor's Daughter" is certainly no disappointment to her followers!! After reading another book by this author, " The Maid of Fairbourne Hall", I was sure that another one could not be as captivating and intriguing, however, I am pleased to say that I was WRONG!! Julie has continued to develop her characters in a most unique way. They have many sides to them, you think you have them figured out and she throws in a new characteristic. The varied personalities within this story make it the winner that it is. Each one grows on you as you read further and you find something in each that you can identify with. Their feelings and emotions are dealt with in such detail , that you feel each challenge, fear, excitement and joy. The main character, Emma, became my friend. Her fears were deep within me as the plot developed.
The plot was totally intriguing. It is a complicated one, full of twists and turns. You were constantly meeting the unexpected. Julie has the suspicious acts escalate as the story develops. Emma' s trust is continually challenged by the two brothers. Which brother should she trust and which one is out to get her?? Don't be surprised to be sitting on the edge of your seat, as this book is a real page turner!! Danger lurks around every corner !!
The setting, on the windswept Cornwall coast, infamous for shipwrecks and superstitions, enhances the feeling of suspense and danger. It is the perfect place for this historical romance.
DEFINITELY a five star book!!! Can hardly wait for your next book, Julie! Your talent to keep me engrossed with my heart pounding exhibits how you have been successful in including everything that a historical romance reader looks for!!
