Very good period story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
After reading two Phillipa Gregory books (which are mostly about the historical period around Henry VIII) I wanted to read others and ran across this story about a third Boleyn girl (fictitious character, supposed to be the older sister of Mary and Anne Boleyn). She was feisty, artistic, a true renaissance woman. She spends years running from her estranged father (portrayed as a power hungry man who basically sells his daughters), and King Henry VIII, and a murderer who knows she witnessed him killing someone. A good story I had a hard time putting down. The author(s) took a lot of artistic license on the actual historical characters, but as long as you realize it's pure fiction and mostly historically inaccurate, it's fine.
Strong heroine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
McGoldrick uses Elizabeth as a strong inventive intelligent resourceful woman that you can admire and root for. McGoldrick creates a plot so strong that you can't imagine your way out, so you must read the next page to see how she delivers her heroine. I have almost every book McGoldrick has written and she reminds me of an even better Catherine Coulter because her plots are more complex but have moments of light humor, suspense and true love that are great features of historical romance. She does not disappoint you for that happy ending. Ambrose understands the courage and sacrifice of this good woman who captivates him. You don't want to put this book down. The beginning hardship the heroine finds herself in is appalling and scary, and the villian is not as evil as Elizabeth's own father. Such strong characters make for good reading. five stars McGoldrick. The historical note on the end is so cute and memorable. McGoldrick has a style of her own that's a winner.

Heart of Gold was a true love story adventure. The previous characters were brought to life in this enchanting story about a lost love found.
