Search - Zoya

From the very beginning until the very end I was unable to put this book down! A must read!

Excellent romance with a firm historical base, a strong female character and believable scenarios.

I. Love. This. Book. As a member of the Russian royalty before the murder of the Tzar in the arly 1900's, Zoya is absolutely lovable, right down to her scandalous wish to become a professional dancer -- akin to a whore in her families eyes :o And she does it, too, when times become so desperate after the revolution that food is scarce and rubies sell as if they were rocks found on the side of the street. I really felt like I was there, that I knew her, and her pain seemed so real! And the ending .. the ending was fabulous, tieing everything togeather so wonderfully. Spanning three generations through three husdbands and countless childeren, homes, hardships, trials and tribulations, this book really is a masterpiece.
