This book was also recommended by Karla, and I see why she enjoyed it. It's a beautiful yet rough setting along the Scottish coast, has some interesting historical connections, and is a safe and clean romance. It's a very enjoyable read, but not particularly satisfying. Like Maisie Dobbs, it's going to the corner library for someone else to enjoy.
One part that intrigued me was the way this author wove the present into the past and vice versa. It was really two stories in one. That was well-done, but that wasn't enough to put it into a category that I would ever want to read it again. I think this is what romance novels are all about--safe and fluffy. I like more reality, I guess. And more interesting characters. But as a light summer read? Okay.
