Summary: People Cannot be This Dumb!
Comment: I found the premise of this book totally unbelievable! Two brothers go off to war, one comes back, the other presumed dead. No problem so far. Dead brother is not dead, but still alive. When he reenters the picture (under a new name/identity) no one recognizes him for who he is/was. They merely think he bears a strong resemblance to the man they all knew and loved. Yeah right. I don't buy it. Especially with Flora, the woman who loved Dex. If I ran into an old boyfriend from high school, I'd still be able to recognize him today, even if he changed his name!
This was the first book I read by this author. I certainly hope her other works are better.

Summary: You wont be able to put this book down
Comment: This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. Ms. Hood-Stewart took us from 1917 to 1998 without feeling rushed.There is so much detail that you feel like you are fighting in the war along with the characters. When you are finished with the book you will feel like the characters are part of your family you care so much about them.

Summary: CAPTIVATING, SENSUAL, EXCITING
Comment: Ms. Hood-Stewart, in only her second book, has written a story on par with Belva Plain and Barbara Taylor Bradford. Her talent in weaving a story is exceptional.
The book begins in World War I and goes up to present day. It revolves around the lives of twin brothers Gavin and Angus MacLeod and Angus's wife Flora.
Gavin believes he has been betrayed by Angus and Flora, who in turn think Gavin has been killed by a German barrage. At the end of the War Gavin comes to America where he begins building a new life under a new name, with plans for revenge against Angus. Ms. Hood-Stewart takes us on a fabulous journey interwining the lives of Gavin, his family and friends, Angus and Flora and their family, plus an array of remarkable, vivid characters. Its exciting, sensual, witty and Gavin is dangerously alluring.
Ms. Hood-Stewart is the cause of my sleepless night. I started reading The Stolen Years and couldn't put it down. I didn't want it to end. I highly recommend this book. Just make sure if you start reading it in the evening, you don't have to be up early the next morning.
