Commentary As Books The Winter Sea (Slains #1)

In the spring of 1708, an invading Jacobite fleet of French and Scottish soldiers nearly succeeded in landing the exiled James Stewart in Scotland to reclaim his crown. Now, Carrie McClelland hopes to turn that story into her next bestselling novel. Settling herself in the shadow of Slains Castle, she creates a heroine named for one of her own ancestors and starts to write. But when she discovers her novel is more fact than fiction, Carrie wonders if she might be dealing with ancestral memory, making her the only living person who knows the truth—the ultimate betrayal—that happened all those years ago, and that knowledge comes very close to destroying her.…

Write Up Regarding Books The Winter Sea (Slains #1)

4+ stars. Review first posted on Fantasy Literature:My recent read of Kearsley's Bellewether left me slightly dissatisfied, but I knew (and was assured by historical novel-loving friends) that she was capable of far more engaging storytelling, so I dove into her older duology of Jacobite-era novels, The Winter Sea and The Firebird. Both of these books in which Kearsley employs her favored dual-timeline approach with romance subplots, a paranormal element, and stellar historical research were



Im glad in this self published and write anything you want times, there are still author like Ms. Kearsley. This is certainly not a bubble gum book which widely available lately, and you just need to read it once and the story will stay with you forever. The last book I felt this way, was Jennifer Donnelly, The Tea Rose. Yep! This type of book is very rare and thats why, it made me more appreciate the throughly research work this author done for her story.I dont know what more can I write here,

If you knew me at all in person, youd know that I am a lover of history. Though I am always interested in history of any kind, my particular interests range from ancient Egypt, its ties to ancient Rome, and how that all eventually leads to England before it was England, across the sea to the Danes and the Northmen, and back again to England, Scotland and Ireland. What fascinates me most is how the influences of all these great people through history still dictate so very much of what we do

Oh my. What a story this was. ❤ The location, the history, the love story. All of it was simply fabulous.Actually there is a story within this story. You will most certainly fall in love with Sophia and John and all that swirls around them. And Catherine and Graham will warm your heart. It came highly recommended to me and I will pass that along as well. A must read for sure!!

I am not generally a reader of romances but this is a very well done historical romance that I really enjoyed. The novel is written in two parallel story lines (and romances!), with an author in the current day writing a historical novel about the Jacobite uprising in 1708, so that her main character's voice relates the events leading up to the uprising and the attempt to bring James Stewart to Scotalnd from his exile in France to claim the Scottish crown. Carrie McClelland writes historical

DNF - page 88I just could not get into this historical fiction. The story was dry, the characters novel that she was writing that we got glimpses into were much to be desired, and theres a reason why this sat on my shelf for like 5 years. It just did not interest me.
