Just started Susanna Kearsley's "The Shadowy Horses", already loving the setting and the plot line. Still slogging through "Under a Pole Star" by Stef Penney, not a bad book but it seems to be going on for ever....

A Loyal Heart by Jody Hedlund (YA)
The novel is #4 in her "An Uncertain Choice" series. After the last novel, I thought the series was concluded. Not long ago, the author announced she'd written a new novel to the series on an author group blog. I'm happy to read a new tale.

I've heard a lot about that book, Vanessa, will be interested to hear what you think of it.

Enjoying it so far. I enjoyed The Silvered Heart by the same author which is about Lady Katherine Ferrars, supposedly a highway woman during Cromwell’s era.
