Summary: Back to Scotland!
Review: Many of you wrote that you enjoyed reading my Scottish settings, so for the final two books in the series, that is where the stories take you. WHITE KNIGHT is set among the northwestern Scottish Highlands and is the story of how my heroine Grace discovers herself after an arranged marriage that starts out disastrous but ends up the love of a lifetime. In the final book of the series, WHITE MIST, the story travels to the mysterious Scottish Hebrides with their charming customs, beautiful scenery, and even an ancient curse. I hope you'll write and share your thoughts.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Get out the tissues
Review: Reding had me in tears for at least 1/3 of the book. Grace tried so hard, and Christian was so cruel...but you understand his position and that he is cruel for a reason. Anyway, Grace's situation really pulls the tears from your eyes. Then you're appalled at what Christian has had to live with that leads him to act as he does. Reding takes most of the book to explain Christian's life/viewpoint, so you may have to trust that he is truly worthy of Grace.

I found the first part of the book the best; the second half, which takes place in Scotland, seemed slower, less dramatic despite its often serious subject matter. Reding has obviously done her research, but the reader sometimes feels hit over the head with it. I would have enjoyed seeing more of Christian's transformation & his time in Scotland with Grace; it would have added greatly to the story. The tidbits we get are wonderful but too little. His grandfather's actions & rational needed more explanation and his transformation (?) more attention.

Despite those less-than-perfect aspects, White Knight is a powerful story well worth the reading. (It beautifully sets up book 4 as well.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hard to put down...tears or not.
Review: This is a tale that had me in tears repeatedly, but I still loved it. I admired Grace's strength and passion for life and her ability to persevere no matter what he new husband Christian the Marquess of Knighton threw her way. His ways were cruel and calloused, but thanks to Ms. Reding's writing ability and the amount of time she put into developing her characters you still can't blame him only understand him. Grace does all that she can to make her marriage work, and when her ideas are depleated she flees. Only time will tell if Christian comes to his senses and follows.

I really can't wait to come across other books written by Ms. Reding. She is a marvelous writer with obvious ability who weaves a magically romantic story that with capture your heart. Enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A keeper!
Review: This was one of the best books I've read all year. The history and the romance were just incredible. Ms. Reding's historical research is above par and well-written, a complement to the story and not a burden on the rest of the plot. I only wish the book had gone on because I didn't want it to end. Brava! I can't wait for the next story in this series...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing! Romantic!
Review: White Knight is third in a series of four, the first being White Heather, the second being White Magic, and the last in the series is White Mist.

Lady Grace Ledys thought that her arranged marriage to Christian Wycliffe, Marquess Knighton, would be perfect, but little did she know that he had a past that he would not deal with, and it was making him a very cold and mean man. With her happiness taken away, Grace decides to leave for a castle called Skynegal.

I was truly amazed at Ms. Reding's truly magnificent descriptions of the Scottish Highland Clearances when poor tenant farmers were burned out of their homes by greedy landowners. The descriptions were explicit and made me feel the anguish that the tenants felt. White Knight was a wonderful romance that was heart breaking at times and yet was exciting to read.
