Written by Heather Fox (author of The Witch of Willow Hall), The Widow of Pale Harbor follows Sophronia, whom the town believes to be a witch, and Gabriel Stone, the new minister in the town who has a history he is trying to hide.
This novel was well written and flowed, keeping the reader entertained. This is a historical fiction novel. With that, this has far less fantasy elements (one character seems to do magic, but it isn’t like her other novel) and is pushed forward by the characters.
I enjoyed the two main characters a lot – it is a romance after all – and kept reading because of them. The mystery in this story is dark, and there is some violence at the end. But, with that, I really enjoyed this novel overall.
If you enjoyed her last novel, you may like this novel. If you like historical fiction set in the USA. There is a very sweet romance in this novel. Very much a historical fiction novel, so if you don’t like that genre, you probably won’t like this novel.
I was given a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.
