HISTORICAL ROMANCE
Lovely story which kept me intrigued. Perhaps my interest in Genealogy, my roots in early Sydney and growing up in the Parramatta area added to my interest. I enjoy Di Morrissey's story telling and Stephanie Daniel's reading . I did wonder though, at the pronounciation of MURWILLUMBAH. Nevertheless this is a good story with an almost predictable ending.
There are some moralistic values, a love story set in different generations, a couple of twists, and a fairy tale ending. The one thing I wonered about was Zac's accent and found it strange that the man who was Odette's "first" walked her down the aisle.
Overall a nice story. An enjoyable read. Good Australian stuff.

A magical story
I love a story that doesn't reveal itself until the very end. But keeps you hooked and needing to know the entire way through.

Narration
The story was beautifully crafted with its twists and turns. It was poignant and well researched. The characters were perfectly drawn.
However, the narration was disappointing with many mispronunciations, particularly with place names.

A page turner
I read Di Morrissey books all the time , but this will be listed amongst my favourites- the switch between different eras is perfect and the beauty of the surroundings and emotions of people are palpable

Terrific
I found this book simply amazing, a page turner, one I did not want to put down.... it is also one I know I would listen to again, as it had me so enthralled. Stephanie Daniel as the narrator was brilliant!!!
