You know right away what happens to Gabriel when you start reading 'Ruby', so reading this book is a bittersweet experience. It was nice to see a time where Jack and Catherine were happy together - at least some of the time. I can't help but wonder what would happen if Gisselle had inherited some kind of gift, since it seems to run in the Grandmere bloodline. Anyhoo, Gabriel comes off as a very likeable character. She's very sweet and loving - maybe a bit too sweet for some - but she was a character I was genuinely fond of so it's hard to take what happens to her at the hands of Octavarius Tate.
I feel that Gladys was a bit overdone with the revelation of what had happened to her as a child, and she knew of Jack's reputation, so she should have made her offer directly to Gabriel, or Catherine should have been the one Gladys went to. Still, this is a good book, and a rather bittersweet one. Definitely one of the ghostwriter's better books.

This book is absolutley EXCELLENT and I really admire V.C Andrews for her brilliant way of writing. I couldn't put it down, and I actually enjoyed silent reading in English during the time that I read it. I SERIOUSLY recommend it to everyone. The only down side to it is that Piere says the cheesiest thangs to Gabriel and the things that he says are unbelievable. Read and enjoy.

This is so far the best series i have read from Virginia Andrews! Tarnished Gold is the prequel to the Landry family series and really makes you want to read on. This is a very sad but gripping book and is so detailed you feel you can really relate to Gabrielle. After reading this book, i couldn't wait to buy the first book 'Ruby' which is even better!
