"I really enjoy novels which are set in more than one time period and with two or more seemingly unconnected sets of characters. I find it interesting to see how the author gradually links the two periods together and how events and characters from a period in history can impact on the present day.

My favourite author who writes in this style is Lucinda Riley and in particular the Seven Sisters series, but if like me, you have read all that has been published you may find some of the following, written in this style, of interest:

The Lake House – Kate Morton

The Smuggler’s daughter – Kerry Barrett

A Postcard from Paris – Alex brown

The Nurses of St Croix – Diney Costeloe

Last Letter Home – Rachel Hore

The Hourglass – Tracy Rees

Sleeper’s Castle – Barbara Erskine"
