It will enthrall readers with its vivid characters and fast-paced, larger-than-life plot." --<i>Romantic Times BOOKreviews (4 1/2 stars) on The Heir</i> <p/>"<i>The Ravenscar Dynasty</i> has it all--power, betrayal, mystery...The characters are all complex, dynamic, and powerful, leading us through Edward Deravenel's struggles one exciting step at a time." --<i>Romance Reviews Today</i> <p/>"Bradford's fiction has long focused on strong heroines who succeed against great odds. Her latest novel, <i>The Ravenscar Dynasty.</i>..is the first of a planned trilogy of novels, all destined for best-sellerdom." --<i>Seattle Post-Intelligencer</i> <p/>"The Harte saga is as much a force of nature as a work of fiction...the issues at stake still compel readers after 25 years. Bradford understood early on readers' hunger for depictions of women who are strong and powerful and whose values embrace family.

Not many novels have the ability to completely immerse the reader, but this one draws you into the story from the very first page." --<i>Romantic Times BOOKreviews on Just Rewards</i> <p/>"Bradford gives her readers more of what she does best--strong, savvy female protagonists who relentlessly pursue great destinies, characters much like the author herself...well-written and full of emotion...completely riveting...the plot, while always complex, has suspenseful moments to keep the pace sharp...good reading...<i>Unexpected Blessings</i> clearly shows why Bradford is still the premier writer of family sagas." --<i>Miami New Times</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>BARBARA TAYLOR BRADFORD</b> was born and brought up in England, and started her writing career as a journalist.
