Format:Hardcover
With this and Emma's secrets Barbara has done what I hoped she would for years given us more of the Hartes and their story. She has gone back to her writing roots and once again it has substance and feeling. You feel you are there with the characters, with the addition of a well known recent event she has kept up with the times while not going over the top.
I had stopped reading her books for awhile they had lost their grit now its back and I cant wait for the next installment. If you read Woman of Substance you wont be disappointed. I didnt want to put either of the recent books down.

Format:Kindle Edition
Essentially, this is a story about a rich family. None of the characters are particularly engaging. There are a few twists and turns along the way but nothing out of the ordinary and certainly, not of the calibre of 'A Woman of Substance'. If you are a fan, don't continure with the saga with these sequels, they will disappoint at every turn.
What is amusing however, is the amount of champagne drunk. Every time one family member visits another, they are offered a glass of champagne as though its a cup of tea!

Format:Paperback
I first read this author in 1985 when I enjoyed her first novel `A Woman of Substance'
I read a couple more titles in the early 90's and then nothing more until 2005 when I read `Where You Belong'
I recently came across this title, her 20th and decided that it was worth reading. The continuing story of the Harte Dynasty started in `A Woman of Substance', more than twenty years ago.
She still writes an enjoyable tale that keeps you turning the pages. I certainly enjoyed catching up with Emma Hartes family in the early years of the 21st century now her great granddaughters, Evan, Tessa, Linnet and India are passionate and volatile young women.
Not a challenging read but if you enjoy a good family saga then this is for you. There is even a list of all the clan members to help you keep track of the many characters.

Book arrived in good condition and I thoroughly enjoyed the read.
Would have appreciated a shorter delivery time though.
