#BookReview: The Mirror (The Lost Bride Trilogy #2) by Nora Roberts @StMartinsPress






Synopsis: #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts continues the hauntingly spectacular Lost Bride Trilogy with book two, The Mirror.

When Sonya MacTavish inherits the huge Victorian mansion on the coast of Maine, she has no idea that the house is haunted. The footsteps she hears at night, the doors slamming, the music playing, are not figments of her imagination. In her dreams she sees glimpses of the past. In the present she finds portraits of brides. And when she has visions of an antique mirror, she is drawn to it, sensing it holds dark family secrets.

Then one night the mirror appears and Sonya glides through this looking glass, into the past—and sees a bride murdered on her wedding day, the circle of gold torn from her finger. It is a scene that will play out again and again—a centuries-old curse that must be broken—and a puzzle she must solve if there is any hope of breaking the curse.

My Review: 
Years ago, I immersed myself in the captivating world of Nora Roberts' novels, but eventually, I drifted away without any particular reason. "Inheritance" served as the perfect catalyst to reignite my passion for her storytelling.

Nora skillfully spins a mesmerizing narrative of history, romance, suspense, and mystery, seamlessly blending these elements into a singular experience unlike any other. From the very beginning, I found myself enthralled, journeying alongside the characters as the intricate plot unfolds, weaving together present-day events with echoes of the past.

The storyline, centered around a string of mysterious deaths among new brides in a magical residence, grips you from the outset. While the full scope of the tale and the resolution of the hauntings aren't completely unveiled by the book's end, it tantalizingly sets the stage for the subsequent installments in the series. Eagerly anticipating delving into the second book, I'm only left with a tinge of regret that the third installment isn't readily available upon finishing.
