Alison's Legacy
Alison's Legacy is one of the best books I have read in a long time. The story starts off with poor Alison being sexually assaulted by her husband. In a time when a woman was supposed to listen to her husband and do as he said, you find Alison being treated with no respect and demoralized in her own home. It was a time when the priest, her mother and the alderman forced her to be subservient to her husband, forced her to live like a common whore, allowing him to take her willingly or not.
Alison's Legacy is filled with twists and turns. She is always on the verge of danger whether if be from her husband or the politics that surround her everyday. This era was fraught with the teachings and authority of the Church and yet Alison's closet friend was a witch. She fears for her safety as well as the child she carries, but she continues to fight for her life and to keep her job as an innkeeper.
When Thomas walks through the door he soon finds out they have a past, a past that they need to overcome if they are to have a future. She falls in love with Thomas and a whirlwind of events will lead them through a roller coaster ride of emotions.
This story is filled with so much emotion. The reader can just feel her pain and you find yourself rooting for her and hoping she finds the love and happiness she so deserves. There are some pretty graphic mishaps in the story but it's a part of her and shows the reader how she became as strong as she is. Alison's Legacy is just too good to pass up. A must read for everyone that loves strong women and romance.
