Historical Romantic Suspense

Worthy of Legend by Roseanna M. White is the third book in her Secrets of the Isles series. Lady Emily Scofield and the Earl of Telford are in a race against her family and a team of archaeologists to locate a secret artifact from the legends of King Arthur. This story had it all –legends, treasure hunting, villains, knights and of course the damsel in distress. Emily and Bram complemented each other so well. I loved the way that she tried to see the good in everyone no matter how they treated her. This was a great conclusion to the series. I received this book from the author for my honest review.

Fantastic Historical Fiction

Wow, what an excellent finish to The Secrets of the Isles series. Having read the first two books in the series and several other books by Roseanna M. White, I was eager to read Worthy of Legend. I was not disappointed in the least! It is an engaging historical romance. A person could read this third book of the series and find it an entertaining and satisfying tale but reading the complete series brings a depth to the story one wouldn't want to miss. I liked how the characters are so realistic in their feelings and actions and how they grow and mature in their emotional and spiritual lives as the story unfolds. The friendship that develops between Emily and her lady's maid, Tommie, is sweet. The banter between Bram and Sheridan is realistic and fun to read. The romances, yes, plural! are delightful, although not without obstacles and difficult situations. Oh, that first kiss!!! And, of course, there are those characters that one doesn't like, which adds a little extra dimension and appeal to the story. The history of life on the Scilly Isles, off the southwestern coast of England, during the early 1900s and the legends of King Arthur, are fascinating. Scenes and conversations are authentic and add so much. Lessons of faith throughout give readers much to think about regarding forgiveness, mercy, and one's sense of worth. Several surprise twists to the plot and an edge-of-the-seat climactic ending certainly kept my interest high. Readers who enjoy engaging historical fiction will not want to miss Worthy of Legend. I read a complimentary copy of the book and was not required to write a positive review. The opinions are my own.

The Hunt is On!

So good! This was such a delightful conclusion to a rollicking adventure of a series! I loved these characters (both the "leading" and "supporting" couples) before Book 3 even began, and I loved them even more as this story unfurled. Roseanna White has once again delivered a fun story packed with adventure and laced with humor, finally coming to a satisfying yet bittersweet close. I'm not quite ready to say goodbye to these friends or their island home, but grateful for the sweet reminders their stories gave that can be applied to my own heart and mind. Don't miss this series!
