Review
"Sinclair sketches out her characters thoroughly enough that their pain and love is tangible." —Publishers Weekly
An engaging . . . romance starring an intrepid heroine willing to risk her soul to go back to save that of her beloved. —Harriet Klausner, Midwest Book Review
"A historical romance that employs many gothic elements. If you like your romances with Southern charm, mystery, and ghosts, this is the book for you." —Novelspot
Product Description
When Sara Wade inherits her paternal grandmother’s plantation, Harrogate, her mother encourages her to go—despite the fact that it’s unheard of for a single woman to live alone in 1850—because she doesn`t want to explain Sara’s embarrassing ability to see ghosts to her friends. Fed up with being offered on the marriage market to less-than-desirable suitors, Sara couldn`t be happier to move to the old plantation house for which she has always had a special, if inexplicable, affinity. Not until she arrives at Harrogate does she realize that the house holds more than her freedom; it also holds her destiny with a ghost who loved her in another lifetime and is determined to win her back. But all is not benevolent peace at Harrogate. Another ghost resides there who is just as determined to keep the lovers apart, even if it means killing Sara.

Another Great Elizabeth Sinclair Paranormal!, Dec 4 2009
By Vicki Hinze - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Garden of the Moon (Mass Market Paperback)
I've long been a fan of Elizabeth Sinclair's paranormal novels. With a deft hand, she creates complex emotional characters that I just love. Garden of the Moon is no exception. It's touching, heartwarming and holds more than a few surprises. Very, very enjoyable read! (And yes, I'm being deliberately obscure about specifics because this is one where you don't want to know a thing about it so you can enjoy the full force and effect.

4.0 out of 5 stars
engaging reincarnation romance, Dec 3 2009
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Garden of the Moon (Mass Market Paperback)
Her mother believes her paranormal skill is an embarrassing curse; her father does not understand her skill, but cares what happens to his daughter. Sara Wade sees ghosts.
Although their motives differ, her parents concur with Sara moving onto Harrogate, an estate she recently inherited from her late grandmother. She wants to renovate the old house that she realizes she shares with two ghosts. Jonathan Bradford claims she is his beloved Maddie Grayson who is in an old diary Sara found. She believes Jonathan, who sends her back to his era to the year he died 1805. The other spirit in her present wants Jonathan dead while Sara prays she can save the life of her beloved.
Garden of the Moon is an engaging reincarnation romance starring an intrepid heroine willing to risk her soul to go back to save that of her beloved, Jonathan who has waited two centuries for her return while sharing hell on earth with his enemy. Although the moving back and forth between the present and the early nineteenth century feels jarring, fans will enjoy this fine paranormal romantic suspense due to the brave Maddie.

Melodramatic Romance, Mar 7 2010
By Stephanie P. Payne "illonah" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Garden of the Moon (Mass Market Paperback)
I read a lot of historical romances and I realize that they are rather formulaic. This one, though, just annoyed me. First, Sara travels back in time 50 years, yet makes a big deal about never seeing her family again. Hello! It's possible that she could. Second, she leaves the house to her friend, but wouldn't she and her husband (with their descendants) still live in it in 50 years? The author also incorporated many gothic touches, but many seemed overdone and trite. I read the entire book but did not enjoy most of it.
