Child of the Mist

Kathleen Morgan is a wonderful story teller. She has created characters who are genuine and struggle with life issues that we all face. She has placed this story in the highlands of Scotland. One of my favorite places in the world. It is an exciting and thrilling story. At times, I couldn't put it down. I love the fact that God isn't just mentioned in the book. He is present in the lives of her characters. He is alive and at work.

I loved this book, I read it in three days and couldn't put it down.

CHILD OF THE MIST was a well-written romantic story that brought Christian values into the mix. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to reeding her others.

Fantastic !!!!!!!!!! Totally Impressive !!!!!!!!

I loved Child of the Mist. It has a brilliant plot with lots of adventure, action and romance . The characters are excellent - I fell in love with Anne (the heroine) and I can't wait for the next book in the series to meet her again. I would like to give it more than five stars and after reading Child of the Mist I'm going to read all Kathleen Morgan's books because she is a special writer. If you like historical romances you certainly will love this book. Read it.

Better then her other book -"Consuming Fire"

Excellent, excellent book! I really loved this story. Right from the beginning, almost the very first page the story grips your heart. I just finished it and already i want to read it again. The only thing that i didn't really like was that there wasn't much mention of God, but don't let that discourage you from reading it, make your own opinion first because its definitely worth reading! The story is about a woman named Anne who uses her skills to heal people. People have superstitions about her a call her a witch which causes obvious trouble right away when she uses her own breath to bring a baby back to life. A man from an enemy clan sees her and accuses her of being a witch, but before she can be burnt at the stake a man comes forward and saves her life. Because of this she later saves his life and is forced to marry him to stop a feud between their opposing clans. Will love find them before a traitor in the clan kills them both? Please read this book i promise you will not regret it!
