Bound by fate, torn by love, and fueled by resilience, one woman's journey defies destiny.

"In Japan, the red thread of fate ties us to our destinies," Terue whispers to herself, knowing that her life's path is intertwined with those she encounters, including the daughter she was forced to leave behind in Edo's Floating World, Kazhua. But as she sets out to reunite with Kazhua, fate unravels a series of unexpected twists for Terue.

Married to Lord Kyle, Terue embarks on a journey from the Highlands of Scotland to the tumultuous battlefields of the Crimea, where she serves as a nurse, confronting the brutal realities of war.

Injured, captured, and presumed dead, Terue faces the agonizing possibility of never reuniting with her daughter or husband. Yet, fueled by a mother's undying love and a fierce determination to defy destiny, Terue's resilience becomes her greatest weapon against the merciless hand of fate.

The Red Thread of Fate is a gripping tale of love, loss, and the enduring strength of the human spirit, weaving together the intricate threads of destiny that bind us all.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Episode Yet!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2019
    "The Red Thread of Fate" is book 2 in the trilogy and the suspense continues to build as Terue/Tara follows her husband Callum through thick and thin. In book 1, Terue lives in Virginia in America. She loses her husband Simon when he went to Japan to look for their daughter Kazhua in Japan. Terue meets Callum at the plantation in Virginia, helping him with the underground railroad to free the slaves. Callum proposes to Terue and she marries him. They move to his native Scotland until the war in Crimea begins and he volunteers. Crimea is between Russia and Turkey and they fight with other countries against the Russians. While Callum was bound to the battlefield in Sebastopol, he drops Tara/Terue off in Scutari to help at the make shift hospital. She was not allowed to tend to the soldiers, but was assigned to the women's ward. After a few months, Tara becomes anxious after not hearing from Callum. She embarks to Sebastopol. Callum and Tara have a sweet yet mournful reunion. The war is taking its toll on Callum and Tara is there by his side every step of the way. Dr. Grieves approaches her to assist him in the make shift hospital at the camp. She does. After a near horrible situation at the hospital, Tara goes for a walk. On her return to the hospital, she is thrown to the ground when a shell explodes near her. She is unconscious. Weeks later she awakes in a strange place with a hot dry climate instead of the freezing cold of Sebastopol. She finds out she is in Turkey living in the haram of Lord Suliman. She cannot remember her life. She only remembers the few years she lived as a child and as a geisha in Japan. After that her mind is blank. She begins to realize how naive she is and learns from a kind woman how to navigate this new world. While talking to her friend Kiraz, Kiraz tells her of the war. At that moment, all of Tara’s memories come flooding back. She knows she must escape. But Kiraz tells her it is impossible. Eventually the Lord commands Tara to be summoned to his bed. She does not know what to do. She refuses to lay with the Lord. But at the same time if she does not go to him, she would be executed. Her friend, Kiraz, instructs her. Tara makes a decision that would forever change her life. After being with the Lord, she is elevated to the highest position for a concubine. But Kiraz informs her that her life is in grave danger from one of the other concubines who would see her dead. They plot an escape plan. Kiraz stays at the palace to give Tara a chance to reunite with Callum. She is almost abducted and assaulted when a group of English soldiers come to her aid. The ruffians release her. They know that she is Lady Skye and they know that Callum is looking for her. During the tussle, the ruffians dislocated her shoulder. She was in so much pain she became unconscious. Many, many days later she awakes to a familiar face, Dr. Grieves. Once she is awake, she is reunited with Callum. There is trepidation coming from both of them. Callum has fears that Tara will no longer want him after the several months they have been apart because of what happened in the war. Tara is afraid Callum will not have her back because of what happened between her and Lord Suliman at the palace. Their fears are unfounded as they embrace. The war is over and instead of heading back to Scotland, they are to journey to Japan in search of Tara's daughter Kazhua. Another exciting book filled with suspense, danger, tension and war. An excellent read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    This is the lovely continuing story of Terue, a Geisha that fled Japan leaving her infant daughter behind to be with the man she loved. It is not merely a love story, but filled with historical events and adventure, a beautiful look at different cultures and how they blend together through human connections.

    Terue, now called Tara to accommodate the Scottish tongue, is happily settled with her husband Callum, Lord Kyle, in the castle he inherited in the Scottish highlands. Life here is very different from the one she led in Virginia.

    In Virginia life was an endless circle of society, galas, and neighbors dropping by then returning these visits. In Scotland Tara is far from the nearest neighbor. In the inhospitable cold season visits are few. Tara has always lived surrounded by others. The long winter has been lonely for her despite her happiness with her new husband. Still with her very essence she longs to be reunited with the daughter she was forced to leave in Japan.

    When visitors come along with the warmer weather, all the talk is of the war in Crimea. Callum feels he must take his Uncle’s place within the Regiment. Tara is terrified of the war. If Callum leaves her behind to join the fighting, will she ever see him again?

    Join Tara and Callum and take a walk through history, as they struggle between duty and their love for one another.

    Book two in the series follows Terue/Tara's story and how she sees and experiences the various events happening in her life. Different cultures and traditions are explored and experienced. The story has been very well thought out and thoroughly researched. The Author does not disappoint.
    Fast paced, heart wrenching, with hardships, suspense, intrigue and romance this is a captivating tale with interesting and unique characters.
    The book is very well written and edited and the reader is taken on a veritable cultural journey.
