Book Review: The Stonewycke Trilogy by Michael R. Phillips & Judith Pella
This was the first book I read in the Christian fiction genre. My sister recommended it since I love historical fiction, and this book starts in Scotland in the mid-1800s. The trilogy consists of the three novels: The Heather Hills of Stonewycke, Flight from...
