    Author

    Fern Michaels

    New York Times bestselling author Fern Michaels has a passion for romance, often with a dash of suspense and drama. It stems from her other joys in life—her family, animals, and historic home. She is usually found in South Carolina, where she is either tapping out stories on her computer, rescuing or supporting animal organizations, or dabbling in some kind of historical restoration.

      This book was enjoyable, not the best book I ever read. The concept of this novel had scope to be developed in a more intense way. The author only scratched the surface of the plot. However, good beach read.
