Review



Sometimes I get to a point where I feel bogged down in a certain genre and need a change. That is when a Mystery is always my go-to. I feel like they make me think and help get my mind off of things more than any other genre. 

There is a great balance between the History and Mystery. I found myself guessing the whole way through, and being wrong quite a bit. 

The plot was fast paced and flowed smoothly and the characters were those who I really liked reading about. They were interesting and compelling. 

I love the setting and I feel like it really shined through in the authors words.

These covers are beautiful!

Scarborough Rock
The thrilling conclusion to the Scarborough Fair series.

1957: In post-war Britain, Rock ‘n Roll is sweeping the nation, but some forms of love are against the law and pre-marital sex is a taboo subject. Sandra and David find themselves in entirely different, yet comparable, circumstances. Is love ever enough?

2017: All Rose has to do is give evidence in court and her nemesis will be put behind bars for a very long time. But Max isn’t going to let a group of teenagers stand between him and freedom. He will fight till the end. No matter who gets hurt.

The events of the past come back to haunt the present. Nothing is without consequences.



Scarborough Rock is the final book in the Scarborough Fair series, a thrilling historical trilogy.
