Review

The re-release of Provo author Sarah Eden's Whitney Award-nominated book, Seeking Persephone, thrills the hearts of her fans and Regency lovers everywhere. Initially self-published and has been out-of-print the past three years, Eden's well-loved story has returned to bookstore shelves.

In Seeking Persephone, Persephone Lancaster's family is on the verge of financial ruin. When an unexpected marriage proposal forces her to choose between her own happiness and her family's welfare, Persephone finds herself relegated to life in a secluded castle as the wife of a bitter duke. Living in a fortress surrounded by foreboding forests and wild dogs while facing a distant, unfeeling husband inside its walls, Persephone is sure she will never be happy again.

But Adam, the Duke of Kielder, is not entirely what he seems. Physically and emotionally scarred from childhood, his icy demeanor masks a softer, more vulnerable character. Forced to face the constant courage and optimism of his enchanting young wife, the Duke can hardly keep his protective walls intact. When menacing forces put Persephone's life in jeopardy, will the Duke risk his heart in order to truly save her or will he remain safe within the stronghold he has created?

Seeking Persephoneis the prequel to Eden's other Whitney Award-nominated book, Courting Miss Lancaster, which was released by Covenant Communications in March 2010.

Using her dynamic style, Eden plunges into this sweet, Beauty and the Beast-type tale. With her characteristic wit and charm she leads readers through the world of strict propriety to find the warmth of a tender love story.

The characters are immediately understandable and endearing. Readers will find themselves rooting for Persephone and Adam to come together through their personal struggles to create a life they can cherish together.

Seeking Persephone is sure to tug at the heart strings of romance lovers and to please Eden's expanding collection of fans. --Melissa DeMoux, For the Deseret News

I read this book, and enjoyed it very much.

In response to the reviewer who gave this book only three stars, I would counter that there were some Viennese who objected to the movie "The Sound of Music" because the shots in the film didn't exactly match the story as it "really happened". Whether or not the Northumberland she knows today looked like Northumberland in the early 1800s is unlikely, and ultimately irrelevant to the reader's enjoyment of this story. Whether or not the setting is exactly historically accurate doesn't matter in the least from your average reader's perspective. Ms. Eden's depictions of a lonely, wild and isolated setting around the Kielder estate I found to be a highly effective setting that mirrored and magnified Perspephone's own feelings of isolation.

Again, to insinuate that every British schoolboy with a close male friend from public school has to be a closet homosexual is media-induced exaggeration, and reading things into the story that just aren't there. I got no "gay vibes" from my own reading of the relationship between Adam and his friend Harry.

As far as the wolves are concerned, while they may be extinct today, there is no reliable indication of when they became extinct. I did a "Google" search, as the three-star reviewer suggested, and found that, while wolves in general in England did seem to be mostly gone around the mid-1700s, some apocryphal stories do exist that placed the time of the wolves' final appearance in England to be around 1835 - well within the time-frame of this novel, which would also explain their starving and desperate state and also their proximity to the castle, such as they were in the book.
