The Shadowy Horses

I just love Susanna Kearsley's writing. I love the way she uses magic and mysticism without going totally overboard. The way she writes relationships is also great–I enjoy watching love grow organically, rather than two people just seeing each other and being all BAM! SOULMATES! Kearsley's romances are much more realistic and believable, which makes them more enjoyable for me.

I've read several of her books, and I think this one is my second favorite of hers. Definitely recommended as a quick read full of interesting history and a sweet little love story. The only trouble with Kearsley is that she'll make you want to book a flight to Scotland post haste.
