Chris Longmuir has spun a tale of epic proportions.  The characters she has created for this story pull the reader in and they plummet right into the middle of the story.  With descriptions that create a world that one can reach out and touch, Chris draws the reader into the world she created for them.I truly enjoyed reading this book.  Belle was never shown kindness or love as a child, so she didn't know how to show it to her daughter, Sarah.  This part of the storyline drew me in and I just wanted to cradle Sarah and let her know she was loved.  I also wanted to let Belle know she was loved.  These characters fought for acceptance and love in a world that could be very cruel.I recommend reading A Salt Splashed Cradle by Chris Longmuir if you love historical tales.  You will not regret reading this book.  Go get it! Are you still here?  Go, go, go.... :-)
