The Lost Bride Trilogy by Nora Roberts ~ a Review

by Susan Roberts

Every spring, Nora Roberts publishes a standalone suspense novel, plus in the fall, she releases a book in her current trilogy.  I don't usually read her trilogy because for the past years they have been magical realism and/or paranormal.  I really enjoyed her standalone books, so I decided to try one of her trilogies.

The Lost Bride Trilogy is a tale of tragedies, loves found and lost, and a family haunted for generations.

Whether you regularly read Asian American literature or are trying to diversify your reading, I don't think you will be disappointed with either of these books.
