Product Description

Product Description

Caroline Cliburn was to be married next Tuesday, and yet she suspected that gratitude was the wrong reason to become a bride. Perhaps that was why she and her younger brother Jody had taken the long drive north to Scotland in search of her missing brother Angus...

When a sudden spring blizzard leaves them stranded by the roadside, it is the snow that gives both her and a lonely young Scot one last chance to find the healing warmth of love.

About the Author

Rosamunde Pilcher has had a long and distinguished career as a novelist and a short story writer, but it was her phenomenally successful novel, The Shell Seekers, that captured the hearts of all who read it and won her international recognition as one of the best-loved storytellers of our time. Her bestselling novel, Coming Home, was made into a television film. Her most recent bestseller was Winter Solstice. She was awarded an O.B.E for services to literature in 2002.

4.0 out of 5 stars A charming early work!, 20 Mar 2004
By C. M. Collier "myopia1" (Liverpool,england) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Snow in April (Mass Market Paperback)
This has all the Pilcher staples; Caroline's nervous about her wedding next week,decides to drive to Scotland with her young brother Jody,to see if their other brother Angus can look after him when she's married.She crashes the car in a storm and they take refuge with Oliver,whose brother's just been killed.What will happen?Who can say?
It's the usual mixture,but Rosamunde Pilcher always manages to find a fresh angle,and you get so interested in the characters and the beautiful Scottish countryside that this early work,while lacking the charisma of The Shell Seekers or September,still has a charm all its own.

3.0 out of 5 stars Review for the abridged Audio CD read by Lyn Redgrave, 22 Dec 2009
By MaryAnne "dubai-reader" (Dubai United Arab Emirates) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This made for a few hours easy listening but it wasn't very exciting. The story-line was pretty predictable without much in the way of surprises. Lyn Redgrave's narration was good but her male voices were rather unconvincing.

Caroline, the heroine, is about to be married to her (nice) step mother's brother. She is not madly in love with him but seems unable to summon the confidence to pull out. Her younger brother, Jodie, is due to leave London for Canada to live with his stepmother, while Caroline will remain in London. There is another, older brother, Angus, who has not been seen for several years, and Jodie is determined to find Angus and ask if he can stay with his brother rather than move to Canada.
Caroline agrees to borrow a car and drive up to Scotland, where Angus was last known to live. When the car crashes in a freak snow storm, Caroline and Jodie walk to the nearest house - the home of Oliver Cairney, where they are dried out and fed. Of course the inevitable happens, with repercussions for everyone. No-one seems to be very upset about it though and everyone lives happily ever after.

I would have liked to have had a bit more objection from the step mother and her brother, a bit more solidity to the novel, which felt rather wishy-washy. I am hoping that The Shell Seekers and September will be more satisfying reads, but sadly, I'm not in any hurry to find out.
