Wonderful middle book in the trilogy beginning with Circle in the Water and following with Dancing in the Air. I actually like Wiggs' historical romances better than her recent lightweight contemporaries.

was so excited to see little Oliver had his own story. After all the poor child endured he was going to live and have a happy ending. I hate to say anything other then raving reviews for Susan Wiggs, but this book just didn't grab me like Circle in the Water did. It was sooo slowww, I must have set it down a hundred times before I was able to make it to the end. When the gypsies showed up I became hopeful but they didn't stick around long enough to bring some of the jubilant happiness they had shared with us in CITW. At then end of the story a baby girl is born to Oliver and Lark, they name her Philippa and this is when I find out there is a third book Dancing On Air that Thank Goodness I have in my TBR pile. But, what had me so excited about Oliver's story is I was introduced to him in lengthy detail in CITW and finding out there is another story about this baby just doesn't excite me, I don't have that link with the baby. It would have been nice to have some of her childhood in this book so I would have been more compelled to see how she turns out in Dancing On Air.

A reckless man...an innocent woman...witty, wicked, and wonderful.
