"This is the 2nd book in the Candlewood Trilogy. I liked this book better than the first. But it is definitely necessary to read the first, as it sets everything up for this book." — Debra (4 out of 5 stars)
"This is the 2nd book in the Candlewood Trilogy. I liked this book better than the first. But it is definitely necessary to read the first, as it sets everything up for this book."
" 2nd book in the candlewood series was better than the 1st. A beautiful story of love, forgiveness, birth, marriage and even death "
" It seems really odd to me that Emma is usually called Widow Garrett! Not exactly how we do things today. Its been a few years since I read the first book in the triology but this book did a good job of bringing it back to me and I really enjoyed it. "
" Running a boarding house at the turn of the century leads to many novel adventures for Emma. "
" didn't know this was part of a trilogy. just picked it off the shelf at the library. seems to be ok on its own even though it's the 2nd book. i would read the whole trilogy i think although i won't go back to #1 now that i read book 2. i may go get #3 though. "
" This second book of the Candlewood Trilogy was even better than the first. Very well written! "
