It was many years ago, but I don’t know when!įrom what I’ve seen on Goodreads, this is a Tam Lin retelling, and that’s enough for me to be sold! I’m always up for a good retelling, and I love fairy tales in general… plus, the synopsis for this book sounds lovely and magical. I bought the e-book version when I saw it listed as a price drop. And as autumn gold fades, Rois is consumed with Corbet Lynn, obsessed with his secret past – until, across the frozed countryside and in flight from her own imagination, truth and dreams become inseparable… In her restless dreams, mixed with the heady warmth of harvest wine, she hears him beckon. In Corbet’s pale green eyes, Rois senses a desperate longing. She is as hopelessly unbridled – and unsuited for marriage – as her betrothed sister Laurel is domestic. In the woods that border Lynn Hall, free-spirited Rois Melior roams wild and barefooted in search of healing herbs. But when Corbet Lynn came to rebuild his family estate, memories of his grandfather’s curse were rekindled by young and old – and rumours filled the heavy air of summer. To others, it was a winter’s tale spun by firelight on cold, dark nights. Some said the dying words of Nial Lynn, murdered by his own son, were a wicked curse. Sorrow and trouble and bitterness will bound you and yours and the children of yours… What it’s about (synopsis via Goodreads) :
