"A Heart Divided" by Mary Brock Jones novel was a beautifully delivered to the reader in such a historical romantic read. The gold rush descriptions that were in New Zealand were absolutely stunning giving the reader something to hold on to while reading this novel. You will be easily taken back from it all. With Nessa's brother Philip, needing her help will John Reid be willing to wait for what he wants. To find this out you will have to pick up "A Heart Divided" and see how this author will present it all to the reader. The characters are all very well developed helping to give the reader a well thought out story with a very nice ending. Would I recommend? YES! ( )
