Readers' FavoriteThe year is 1912 and Lady Amelia Williams is one of the wealthiest women in Manchester England and mother to the lovely Abigail. When James Thomas, the son of a family who has recently moved to the countryside is invited to dine at the Williams manor he encounters the secret that Amelia has long kept hidden behind the walls of her home. A woman enslaved into servitude and beautiful beyond words but donned in rags and treated in the cruelest, most appalling way. Her name is Magdalena and one look into her eyes, so full of pain and sadness is enough to capture James's heart. A story of tragedy, sorrow, loss and love, how much can two souls endure when there are those bent on tearing them apart?

Review:  Windswept is an epic novel in that it spans time and generations. Written with a total familiarity for the era, the author introduces colorful characters each with their own particular story behind them. It begins with Isabella and her woeful story as she is integrated into the life of a servant and then her love affair with the master of the house, Charles. I do not wish to spoil the story for readers so will not elaborate any further on what happens to them, only that it is their child who becomes the main protagonist. Be prepared to be put through an emotional wringer. This novel is well-written and descriptive, ripe with imagery and the machinations of its many characters. This book is romance with heartache and suffering but with an underlying theme. Love prevails.I was sent this book for review.

 About the author: Suilyaniz Cintron is a fiction writer who has been creating stories and characters since her early teens. She resides in her hometown of Ponce Puerto Rico. When she isn’t writing she can be found reading, watching silent films or working on her YouTube channel. the author is really nice.

Review:  this book is really good and it’s a story l was hooked on after the first few lines and l loved the Abby and jack story it was a really heart-warming. I was sad to read that Abby had been raped and then sent to a convent and she nearly died giving birth to her son and I could not believe jack’s father sent jack and his mother away cause he thought she been cheating on him with his brother and jack was not his son and l could not believe that the woman helping Abby was not really a nun and she took money off jack to help unwed mothers like Abby when she was a fake nun and l was sickened to read she killed loads of mothers and babies. But she was still grieving for the loss of her little boy. Her sister use to help unwed mothers keep their baby and her sister was looking after one of the women’s babies when Micah drowned in the pond in the backyard. She never got over having her little boy taken off her by her sister her brother thinks she killed their sister because she blames her sister for the death of her little boy and l thought she was going to kill Abby and will but thankfully jack saved them.

About the author: I write paranormal and historical romance. I have two grown daughters and have been married since 1980. I'm also a reader, who writes book reviews. But if I can't say something nice... and she is really nice and l cannot wait to read more of Lilly Gayle books.
