A Totally Intriguing Read!
Award
winning author, Lisa Wingate, takes the reader on a haunting, mesmerizing
journey that vacillates between historical Wildwood Creek to present day, and
of two women who bear a striking resemblance to one another and whose lives
intertwine although centuries apart.
Allie
Kirkland has landed the dream job of a lifetime…to portray Bonnie Rose, a young
school teacher in 1861 Wildwood, in a reenactment of the legendary frontier
settlement which is shrouded in secrets and mystery. When Allie sees a tintype
of Bonnie Rose she is shocked to discover they could pass as twins and becomes
obsessed in finding out all she can about this lovely, young woman and the
inhabitants of Wildwood Creek, all of whom seemed to meet up with a tragic ending.
On the film set in Wildwood, everyone seems to be hiding secrets—even the
handsome Blake Fulton who has more than just a passing interest in Allie. But
can she even be able to trust him as unsettling events begin to take place that
could possibly cause history to repeat itself in Wildwood? And what was the
fate of the mystifying Bonnie Rose…
I can
certainly see why Lisa Wingate wins so many awards! This fascinating storyline
written with such brilliance, expertise, and realistic characterization, has
left me duly impressed! Being the historical fiction lover that I am, traveling
to and fro from Bonnie Rose's point of view to Allie's, was especially
enjoyable to me! Wildwood Creek is a totally suspenseful, unpredictable read
with lots of twists, turns, and a surprise ending; guaranteed to mesmerize the
reader! Nicely done, Lisa Wingate!
