A beautiful, beautiful read,
By Derinoe (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stardust of Yesterday (Mass Market Paperback)
Lynn Kurland is an amazing writer and her imagination never ceases to amaze me.Stardust was beautifully written and was one of the most touching romances I have ever read. It now has a coveted spot on my "keepers" bookshelf and will be read many more times in the future. Her characters are always intriguing and endearing. Kendrick has always had a special place in my heart from the moment he began appearing in Lynn's books. Most likely because his wit and off-balance humour reminds me of someone else I love dearly. His match is well met in the fiesty, adorable Genevieve. Good ghost-love stories are often hard to come by, but this one is wonderful.

Laugh-Out-Loud Funny and Beautifully Loving and Tender,
By "cberry22" (Vilonia, AR United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stardust of Yesterday (Mass Market Paperback)
I absolutely loved this book! I will not go into detail of what this story is about. The above reviews are pretty descriptive.The love that develops between Genevieve and Kendrick is beautiful. There are so many laugh-out-loud moments as well as tearful scenes where you feel the seeming hopelessness of their situation. You can actually see them fall in love (sniffle, sniffle). Ms. Kurland really "draws" the characters and scenes so fully and clearly that you feel like you are right there in the room with them. Genevieve and Kendrick are very likeable/loveable characters - well, you may want to grab Kendrick by the neck and shake a few times in the very beginning, but he quickly redeems himself. The supporting characters are also very well developed and sometimes "steal the show." I know there are a few of them that I hope will get their own story. While there are some good moments of suspense, in this reader's opinion this story is mostly about the developing relationship between Genevieve and Kendrick, who they are and how they came to be where they are presently. It is a beautiful and humorous love story and one of the most well-written stories I have read. I loved not only the characters (even when you want to throttle them) but also the story line and how it progressed from the first to the very last page (well, okay, there were a couple of aggravations, but who in real life never has those? And those aggravations do not detract from the story but actually add to it). One comment for those who like explicit love scenes in their books: You will not get that in this book. There is a little bit of descriptive "love making," but not in great detail. Some may think this leaves the story lacking, but in my opinion it is not necessary to include X-rated sex scenes in order to have a good love story. If you want to spend several hours being entertained by laughing out loud and oohing and ahhing over tender moments, then I recommend getting this book. You will not be disappointed.

A book to read again and again....,

This review is from: Stardust of Yesterday (Mass Market Paperback)
This was a funny and heart warming story about a young woman who loses everything she has worked very hard to achieve only to inherit a castle and a new life. The castle comes with a few "extras" - ghosts to be exact. Lord Seakirk is the main ghost who resides in the castle and believes he can only be released from his 700 year curse when the last of the Buchannan line signs the castle over to him. Mayhem ensues when the fiesty, but shy new Lady of the manor arrives and refuses to be frightened off or scared to death by the ghosts. Lord Seakirk (a.k.a. Kendrick) finds himself feeling protective and happy with his new charge and begins to befriend her instead of scaring her away. Maybe a 700-year-old curse isn't such a bad thing after all?
