This book is the Winner of the 2011 Holt Medallion Award for Best First Book.
Is anyone perfect as an author with their first book???
Highland Blessings is a surprisingly adept first novel from Jennifer Hudson Taylor. The book serves up a truly likable heroine, a satisfying romance, and all with a lush backdrop of castles, clans, plaids and a Scottish brogue to boot. A good supporting cast brings depth to the story, and I can recommend this book for a good dose of blessings, indeed. I look forward to seeing more from this new author.
There were a couple of plot points I stumbled over a bit, but the good far outweighs the bad in this medieval Scottish tale.
A small glossary would be a nice future addition for novice brogue readers' benefit including words like burn (river), bairn (child), kirk (church), & sennight (week).
