Blech, blech, blech. *g*
Because a lot of sagas/clogs-and-shawls novels shared similar covers and fonts with gothic romances, I was suckered in reading a fair share of them before I realized that I was sick of reading books with unhappy or bittersweet endings. Gaskin is a main offender (along with Dorothy Eden), imo.
This book is good, if you take in the context of a story, but if you're expecting a "gothic romance", don't look for it here.
