A Perfect Blend of Romance, Suspense & Murder
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I originally read this book in 1974, published under the author Patricia Maxwell. I loved it. The author knew how to build the suspense, while also creating a tense anticipation. Claire, clearly torn by her ambivalent feelings towards the man she was forced to marry, begins to fall under his spell, as well as her new home, the plantation Sans Songe (Without Illusion). The story twists down to a satisfying conclusion, leaving the reader searching for more books by Patricia Maxwell. It took me many years to discover that she also publishes under the name Jennifer Blake. Which left me with a whole new list of books to read. Excellent read, I would recommend it to any one who enjoys romance spun around mystery!
