Song of a Druid Princess

Set in 1919, Song of a Druid Princess is the third book in Stewart’s Garland of Druid’s series. The story follows Kate, one of the twin daughters of Morgan and Lance Dellafield whose romance was chronicled in the first book of the series, Druid’s Daughter.

A promising musician, Kate' Druid powers are not as strong as the other women in her family, but she has enough. In Paris under the care of her maternal grandparents, she is studying at the Conservatoire de Paris both as a skilled violinist and a hopeful composer. To this end she signs up for Maestro Gabriel Jourdain’s beginning composition class. The stunningly handsome war hero takes immediate interest in her, though not necessarily a positive one. As the plot unfolds we find jealousy, fanaticism, abductions, violent attacks and just about anything else that the powers that be can throw at this couple including M. Jourdain’s own tortured secrets. Secrets that make him reject Kate, even though her Druid senses tell her he cares for her.

Stewart does a wonderful job with her characters. Consistently in these books you truly like the characters, primary and secondary. Kate is charming and endearing. She is soft and sweet without being too soft or sweet. Stewart cuts just the right balance between vulnerability and strength in her heroines. And Gabriel is just about as lovely a hero as you could ask for. He is strong and proud with just enough flawed idiocy to make him tenderly endearing. We also get a look at characters we’ve met before; Viviane and Devon Randall whose romance we also saw in book one and Jamie Randall a small boy at the start of the series, he is now grown into a young man.

Song of a Druid Princess is a delightful and comfortable read that will have the reader smiling with the blush of love as it unfolds.
