She knew it was wrong to go in her cousin's place to Heath hallows Abbey. But Arabella was dead, and she, Caroline, was alone and destitute. And the wealthy Hawkesworths would never know the difference... As it turned out, there was one Hawkesworth who had met her before: cold and sardonic Ross. But if he remembered her, he didn't not reveal it by so much as a flicker of his dark gaze. Or perhaps he had too many secrets of his own to worry about hers. For, as Caroline would soon discover, the tragedies of the past cast a dark and deadly shadow over Heath Hallows. And as the wild bleakness of the Yorkshire moors drove a chill into her heart, and the crumbling walls seemed to whisper of evil, Caroline Whitwood began to sense that someone did not want her there. Someone who watched while she took her solitary walks and waited for her in the shadows. Watching and waiting for the chance to keep her away-forever-from the secrets of Heath Hallows.

Heath Hallows Reviews

  • Alix

    3.5 stars. It was certainly predictable and I wish there were more scenes developing the romance between the heroine and love interest, but the author can write well. Definitely one of the better Zebra gothics that I’ve read.

  • Taylor - Muse Ignited Reads

    I’m thinking I really like Michele Yount Thomas, and while this one was not as good as Crystal Shadows there was still a lot to enjoy here. Besides being a decent writer she does two things pretty well: her romantic lead/anti-hero’s are appropriately broody and slightly spastic (yes I apparently love a guy who’s a little Cray Cray), but at least they are the guy Im mostly rooting for the heroine to end up with - but what she does really well as an author is gives you pretty awesome and unique villains, with much heavier psychological undertones than standard stock “evil” characters with simplistic motives.

    Fun classic type gothic read (If the main characters personality and the romance had been a little stronger/better handled it might have been up there with Crystal Shadows). Plus the setting is always a good one for Gothics, the stark, rough and dangerous beauty of the moors.

    A bit slow-going, but once I was into it I couldn't put it down! Also, I was unable to guess the ending, which was an excellent surprise! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this Gothic Romance novel.
