Editorial Reviews
“In The Daughter of Highland Hall, Carrie Turansky sweeps readers back into the early nineteen hundreds, to the glamour of London society as well as the desperate world of those struggling to survive in London’s East End. This beautiful story is filled with endearing characters who will steal your heart and surprises that will keep you engrossed until the very end.” —Melanie Dobson, author of The Courier of Caswell Hall
“From London’s East End to the royal presentation court, Carrie Turansky pulls back the curtain on Edwardian England in this sweeping new drama. The Daughter of Highland Hall will delight romance fans as well as those who like a peek behind the scenes into the lives of the elite and the people who serve them. A delight from the first page to the last.” —Carla Stewart, author of Stardust
“Giving vivid entry into an Edwardian England setting, from genteel ballrooms to the gritty streets of London’s East End, author Carrie Turansky has created a cast of multilayered, delightfully written characters I found engaging from beginning to end. The Daughter of Highland Hall is at its heart a story of personal courage, one sure to please fans of Turansky’s The Governess of Highland Hall, as well as readers coming fresh to the series with this book.” —Lori Benton, author of Burning Sky
“From first line to last, The Daughter of Highland Hall is a sumptuous Edwardian feast, brimming with romance, history, and spiritual truths. Society and its glitter fade away as what truly matters comes into play. A delightful addition to the Edwardian Brides series!” —Laura Frantz, author of Love’s Fortune
“Veida Dehmlow’s rich, versatile voice brings to life this second book in the Edwardian Brides series…Dehmlow hits just the right notes in this inspirational story of faith and love. She’s spot on at portraying all strata of British accents, especially excelling at the voice of Katherine’s snooty Aunt Louisa. Just as effective is Dehmlow’s portrayl of those ‘below stairs,’ each of whom she makes sound distinct and distinctly working class.” —AudioFile
The flow was even and smooth and [Veida] excelled at both the dialogue and the descriptions. —Books, Chocolate & Lipgloss Audio Book Blog
