REVIEW: The Burning Lamp by Frances Murray

JayneB Reviews Category / B+ Reviews / Book ReviewsAmerican historical / Historical / nurse / Western Romance2 Comments

Dear Ms Murray, I picked up your name from a thread at AAR. Lots of people had good things to say about you and this book in particular. After reading this, I can see why. The basic story is about a young Scottish woman who first trains in London with ... more >
