Loved! Loved! Loved! This is an exquisitely told story of a woman dealing with all the issues faced when trying to rebuild a life. Freshly divorced and facing forty, being alone isn't exactly appealing. When a chance encounter with a much younger man turns into so much more Kate Adam's world is rocked off it's axis. Throw in a controlling abusive ex and a rocky at best relationship with her teenage daughter and it may be more than Kate can handle.

I loved the characters in this book and with all that was going on, never once did I feel lost. Great writing kept everything together and moving forward. I highly recommend this one for everyone. ( )

Rosamund lived a life with many avenues of marriage and pleasure. Her daughter Phillipa was eyed by Henry, a known theif in the family. Henry was 17 and felt he should have been given Friarsgate, as did his father whom died there of a heart attack. Rosamund also had a love story of her own until he had a seisure and couldn't remember her, ending any possibility of marriage. Bolton has tried to gain her attentions for marriage, and finally achieves his goal. ( )

In 1511 The Border,Rosamund now widowed three times and only twenty-two, informs her cousin that she is no longer interested in having a husband. She especially wants to avoid a betrothal to anyone selected by someone but herself. Instead she plans to visit her friend Margaret Tudor married to King James IV of Scotland unencumbered by a spouse.

At the court, Patrick Leslie sees Rosamund sitting near the queen and knows he has found love for the first time in his life. Rosamund shares his deep feelings, but has doubts about another marriage. When King James assigns Patrick a mission in San Lorenzo to try to stop a pending war, he brings Rosamund along not realizing at the time the danger of their adventure, but the feeling that they belong together.But, both know it will never last and take advantage of their time togather.

UNTIL YOU, the sequel to ROSAMUND, is a delightful sixteenth century Scottish romance that is a typical Bertrice Small historical tale. The story line moves rather quickly once the duo leaves Scotland ( )
