The Angel Tree
The Angel Tree | Lucinda Riley
11 posts | 8 read | 9 to read
The Angel Tree by Lucinda Riley is a compelling mystery of family secrets and forgotten pasts from the author of The Seven Sisters. Thirty years have passed since Greta left Marchmont Hall, a grand and beautiful house nestled in the hills of rural Monmouthshire. But when she returns to the Hall for Christmas, at the invitation of her old friend David Marchmont, she has no recollection of her past association with it - the result of a tragic accident that has blanked out more than two decades of her life. Then, during a walk through the wintry landscape, she stumbles across a grave in the woods, and the weathered inscription on the headstone tells her that a little boy is buried here . . . The poignant discovery strikes a chord in Greta's mind and soon ignites a quest to rediscover her lost memories. With David's help, she begins to piece together the fragments of not only her own story, but that of her daughter, Cheska, who was the tragic victim of circumstances beyond her control. And, most definitely, not the angel she appeared to be . . . *First published as Not Quite an Angel under the name Lucinda Edmonds, now extensively rewritten*

Every year, my boys‘ elementary school has an “Angel Tree” program to help schoolmates - and their siblings - who are in need. There‘s a 17 year old girl who would like YA romance novels, and we‘ve signed up to get her a few. Please hit me with recommendations so this precious young woman can immerse herself in some great stories. THANK YOU❣️❣️❣️

vivastory I don't have suggestions but I love the idea behind this program 👏 👏 💙 1y
MoniqueReads305 I don't read much YA and even less YA romance bit several year back I read I Wanna Be Where You Are and loved it. It was a nice sweet sometimes funny romance that made me smile throughout most of the book. 1y
Prairiegirl_reading Maybe the holiday switch? Cute and holiday themed. 1y

britt_brooke @vivastory It‘s so wonderful!! In addition to this, my third grader‘s class is sponsoring two students from another local school. That we‘re teaching the kids how important is it to help others when they can is as important as all the other subjects combined. We are so fortunate to be able to help if even just a little bit. ❤️ 1y
Scochrane26 I have a friend who wrote this one. It‘s cute. 1y
Scochrane26 The Geekerella trilogy is a lot of fun 1y
Scochrane26 And my friend‘s teen daughter wanted me to read Love & Gelato. Set in Italy, it was good. There‘s several more in the series set in different countries. 1y
Scochrane26 Ok, I may read too many ya books 😂. @britt_brooke (edited) 1y
mrp27 My niece is 15, a little younger but she‘s been devouring these books and the above titles. 1y
julesG How about body positive 1y
BookBelle84 Tokyo Ever After, XOXO, Once Upon A K-prom, Of Curses and Kissess....all super cute and enjoyable. 1y
britt_brooke @Scochrane26 No way, lol - and thank you!! And thanks for the reminder about Geekerella - I liked that one and definitely need to read the other two! 1y

This book was surprisingly fantastic. It gave me serious Downton Abbey feels. Also reminded me of Anita Burgh, an author my granny and I used to read together.
A beautiful English family drama that includes a Welsh family mansion, Hollywood beauties and lots of intrigue.

laurieluna @TrishB very jealous! 💜 I've never had the privilege of seeing them live. ☹️ 5y
TrishB I think you‘re probably just that bit too young! 5y
laurieluna @TrishB I think Julianne was still touring when I first got into them over 10 years ago but haven't heard of any tours since! 5y
TrishB I think that was probably the last one. 5y

What I got for christmas, in english this one is called the love letter, but I can't find it on Listy? I think I read that she first published it under another name, so this is a new releas because the first time the publishers removed it from the shops because of the fictive royalty family story. This type og books is not my regular cup of tea, but I will give it a read 📚 #lucindariley #lovestory #bookgifts #christmasgifts #newin #ilovebooks

Andrew65 I love Lucinda Riley books, always great reads. I hope you enjoy it. 6y
ardismargrethe @Andrew65 think I will, looks like the story is intresting ❤️ 6y
Andrew65 In the UK The Love Letter isn‘t published until May 2018. 6y
ardismargrethe @Andrew65 I see, haha wow, feel like Norway never is the first country to get something 😂 hmm, that means that I have 5 months to read it 📚 6y

#litsypartyofone #bookmail #catsoflitsy This 18 year old cat got sick of the 10 year old Tortie teasing her and chased her halfway through the apartment to under my mom's bed! Girl cats, I tell ya... I've had the tagged book out from the library forever and finally decided to buy it. The Nightshade Lounge one is set here in Chicago!! I have a weakness for books with moon or angel in the title, and ones set here in Chicago. More bookmail Tuesday❤️

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Wow! Good for her, a great feisty lady! (edited) 7y
Mimi28 @Riveted_Reader_Melissa She cracks me up!! She hisses a lot, but then sometimes she's over- affectionate and licks inside ears- I don't like that. She eats really good too! She's awesome!! 👍❤️❤️😊😊 7y
