book two of the Harte family
Great book! The sequel to "A Woman of Substance." Continues the story of Emma Hart and her family. I love Barbara Taylor Bradford books.
Emma Harte is relinquishing her 50 year reign to her granddaughter, Paua MCGill Fairley. Now Paula will assume control of Emma's lavish financial empire and carry forth her dream of power and privilege in a story that soars around the globe from the Yorkshire countryside to the elegant ski resorts of Chamonix until greed threatens all that Emma has built.
Great book! Many characters and situations to keep track of, but the author does a good job of keeping things straight for the reader.
Not as good as the first and last(Mixed Blessings), but still good. I want to read the entire series. Not much happens the first 300 pgs., but it gets better.
