Praise for the novels of May McGoldrick:
"Love triumphs in this richly romantic tale." Nora Roberts
"Wonderful! Just the right blend of historical detail, romance, and intrigue." Jill Marie Landis
"Impressive...A splendid Scottish tale, filled with humor and suspense." Arnette Lamb
"No one captures the magic and romance of the British Isles like May McGoldrick." Miranda Jarrett
"Delightful, entertaining, fast-paced and the beginning of a grand new series, The Dreamer will hold a special place in your heart. May McGoldrick has done it again...written a tantalizing treat." Kathe Robin, Romantic Times
My Takes
It's not a bad book or story. There is a bigger over arching storyline that spans all the books in the series so it can be read on its own, if you don't care about the bigger story going on.
Like most regency / historical romances it is one that you can read and immediately forget. I haven't even finished the book and while I grew to like Stewart, he is not one that I will ever pick up again. The writer does a good job and its not a bad book, but it isn't a stand out read either.
