Media Reviews
'A good read.' Leicester Mercury on A Girl of Her Time
'A riveting story, absorbingly told.' Ireland on Sunday on Rosemary
'Rosemary is a story of survival, strength and of a young girl's quest for love. It's an absorbing read, so well crafted that your heart will beat just a little faster as you're drawn into the riveting battle between heartbreak and hope.' Daily Record
'Kaine is a fantastic storyteller and has a knack for connecting with the reader and making her characters seem true to life.' Woman's Way on Rosemary
'A perfect novel . . . Kaine is great at conveying the tough times following the Second World War. Beth is an inspiring heroine, and readers will love her rise from rags to riches.' Irish Tatler on Ring of Clay
'Stands out from the crowd...There is much more than just a girl-meets-boy-wedding-bells-happy-ending to Kaine's book...Sub-plots are skilfully woven into the tale, but it is her studies of the relationships between her characters which single the novel out.' Leicester Mercury on Ring of Clay
'A beautiful romantic novel of tragedy, loneliness and new-found feelings...an absorbing tale that captured me from the first words.' Harborough Mail on Rosemary
'Kaine has a gift for storytelling.' Woman's Way on Ring of Clay
