About this ebook
He would make her whole again
Leaving behind a disastrous marriage, Andy Calhoun moves to the small town of Pemberton, Georgia, "in search of banality." What she discovers, though, is not serenity, but Tom Dabney, a passionate and magical man.
An exuberant poet who worships the wilderness surrounding Pemberton, Tom is everything Andy doesn't need in her life right now. But despite warnings from friends, Andy is soon deeply immersed in Tom's life and his world . . . a world he will do anything to protect. When Tom declares war on the enemy poisoning his woods, it becomes clear that Andy must choose between her life with Tom and the one she left behind . . . if Pemberton society will take her back.

Reviews for King's Oak
75 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Siddons has a magical way with words, and her skill in character development is outstanding. The story is less compelling than it is a continuity in an ongoing saga of a woman and her child. Like many authors, the ending seemed "rushed," and IMHO lacked some of the fine detail that Siddons otherwise masters so well.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book took me a while to get into. I had actually put it away with the intention of trying again later, then grabbed it again when I needed something convenient to read. Ms. Siddon tends to do a lot of set-up, and I felt like I had to plow through it before I got to the interesting meat of the story. However, when push comes to shove, I end up rather enjoying her books, even when I have to skim through several pages about worshipping the woods.
