This story is so captivating! The mixture of best friends and found friends fighting a ghost trying to destroy their family is one that has had me on the edge of my seat for two books now. I loved both of the audio books with different narrators and especially love the character voice of Cleo is my favorite. The cliffhangers on each book made me want to immediately jump into the conclusion of this 3 book series and see Dobbs finally defeated! How are they going to do it?!?

4 Stars
Great continuation of the story! This book kept me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what is going to happen. I LOVE all of the paranormal elements. The narrator was perfect at telling the story. I can't wait for the 3rd book!!
Thank you to Macmillian audio and Net Galley for the opportunity to listen to this book.

I can't believe this is my first Nora Roberts book. She's such a prolific writer and this is my very first time reading her work. Even though I stepped into book 2 of 3, I very much enjoyed it. I'm a converted fan of her work now. Roberts has such a rich way of writing, world and character building that it really draws you in. I felt so emotionally invested in the characters and the story. I am definitely going to go and read more Nora Roberts books now. Highly recommend this series.

This is the second book in the trilogy, and if you are a long time Robert's fan, as I am, her trilogies are slightly formulaic. Book 2 is strengthening of main character bonds, with the danger and intrigue increasing, while we try to figure out the villains next move. Despite knowing that, I still devoured the story, and absolutely can't wait for the final installment.

This book starts at where the first one ends. Let me tell you I did not think it could be any better than the first and I was wrong. You have to read the first book to truly understand what is going on in the second so please read that one first. I laughed and cried with this book. I love all the bonding going on between both the ghosts and the real people. A little bit of romance. It is just a great book!! I could not put it down!! That ending oh my gosh!!! I can’t wait for the next one to come out!! You need to read this book!! You will not be disappointed!!

I listened to the audio book version of this title and totally enjoyed it. I'm a fan of Nora Robert's books and this didn't disappoint! The voice actor was excellent and really made the listening experience a joy.

Took me a while to really get into the story.
It starts off at a run and i thought for a second I accidentally skipped some chapters.
It's slow moving. Random things happening.
It follows an everyday life in a paranormal way.
It kept me interested enough, mainly because I really wanted to know the whats and hows and how it would end.
....... is there a 3rd book cause....
I have more questions than answers..

I couldn't wait to dive into this one after finishing Inheritance last week. I tell ya, if I could live in a mansion with my best friend and ghosts that play me music and clean up after me, I would LOVE that! The Mirror picks up right where Inheritance left off and you get a lot more backstory and it is so entertaining!
Pressly knows it out of the park with her narration. Her southern drawl is stellar and I loved how she brought the characters and the story to life!

This is the second book in this trilogy and they need to be read in order. The last book ended on a cliffhanger and this book picked up where that left off. We learned more about both the main characters and the mystery. This book is a very satisfying read, but the story does not wrap up. I’m now dying for the final installment to find out what else happens.

Loved the narrator for this audiobook, she kept me engaged in the book. I enjoyed the storyline of the book, but felt like I was missing a few things, that's then I realized this book is Book 2 in a Trilogy. Even though I got the gist of the storyline and was able to understand most of what was going on I think I would have enjoyed it more if I read book 1. I love Nora Roberts books so I will be getting this entire set and reading it.
Thank you NetGalley and the author for this ARC!!

I love this series, just like I knew I would. The Mirror is the second in the Lost Bride Trilogy, and I ALMOST wish that I had waited until the third book was out to read the first two, because now I just have to know how it all will end. I am loving the #girlpower and paranormal vibes of Inheritance and The Mirror. From helpful ghosts to the spirit of a boy that entertain Sonya's dog while she works, this is Nora Roberts at her best. The only thing that could make this series even better? Brittany Pressley as the narrator. need book three ASAP!

Thank you, NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for this audiobook for review. This was a captivating audiobook about the past and how it was affecting the present. It is the second book in the Lost Bride trilogy, but I didn’t feel like I was missing anything by not having read the first book in the series before reading this one. I will be going back and reading the first book now since I enjoyed this book so much. Roberts always delivers a story full of drama, love, and mystery.

I absolutely loved this book and was hooked from the beginning of it. Nora Roberts is and always has been an amazing author with flawless writing.

Rating: 4/5
I received an eARC for my honest opinion.
This is book two of The Lost Bride Trilogy. I will admit that I didn’t realize when I requested this book, it was number two in the trilogy but let me tell you what, I didn’t have a hard time at all with understanding what was going on. I do have to say a lot of that is due to Nora Roberts retellings of things that happened in the first book and to her great job at the world-building and having great characters that I didn’t even need the first book, but I will be reading book one here soon because if it's anything like this book I know I will like it.
I liked that this book is about Sonya MacTavish who has inherited a Victorian mansion off the coast of Maine, but she had no clue that it was haunted by the ghost of seven brides who have died in that house on their wedding day. Why are they all dying? That is the mystery and one that you will know once you pick up these books. I liked that Nora gave the readers a glimpse of the past and why everything is happening. I loved getting to know the characters in this book and I can’t really say if the plot was coming through or not more in this book because I haven’t read the first one. However, for me that wasn’t a big deal because I got to focus on the characters, which I loved.
I found Sonya and Cleo to be the best of friends and where one might be lacking, that is where the other one will be there to help them. That is true friendship balance that you don’t see much in books anymore. You will see that these two women are strong and dedicated, who understand failure but don’t accept it, who will do anything to make sure that they get their HEA and to get through the hard times. I found the males in the book to be paired with the exact woman that complaints them, I liked that they’re there for Cleo and Sonya but they’re not trying to go above them or stop them from trying to understand what is going on in the house and how to stop it. I loved the romance between Sonya and Trey, and with Cleo and Owen it really helped to balance out the negative things that one spirit is doing around the house.
I received an audio copy of this book as well and I loved the narrator Brittany Pressley really helped this book shine with the characters, and the details to the book. I loved that she put her heart into narrating this book and helped bring it to life. I can’t wait to read book one and then book three, I must know how Nora is going to wrap up this trilogy.
I want to thank NetGalley, Macmillan audio and St. Martin’s Press for the opportunity to review this book.

*The Mirror* is a fascinating mix of historical fiction, mystery, and fantasy. It follows two women dealing with relationships and a haunted house with a creepy ghost, all while unraveling a centuries-old curse—plus, the story has enough background to make it easy to jump in even if you haven't read the first book (like me).

Thanks to #Netgalley and #Noraroberts for the free arc of the Mirror. This is the first of Nora's titles i have read and yes i should have never started on book 2 in a series but it actually seems to be ok to read as it is, there is enough information on the characters to understand the context of the story. I love anything with ghosts and this has a maleviolent one that is at odds with the main characters. The story focuses on 2 women and the men in their lives but the house is also a huge presence in the story.

Thank you to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for sending me an early copy of this audiobook! All opinions are my own!
I was not expecting to like these books as much as I do, but I have fallen in love with this world. The characters are all so compelling, each in their own unique ways. I can't stop thinking about what might happen to them next and where they will go from here.
My one thing was that it feels very drawn out, especially with not having found a single ring yet, but maybe that will make more sense with the third book. Otherwise I was sucked into these books from the first chapter and I cannot wait to see what happens next. The romance is so sweet, and I love how each character is learning something new about themselves from their relationships. I adore the strong female leads and how their fear does not make them any less strong.
And don't get me started on the complexity of the plot and the eeriness behind the story reflected into the present. I love the atmosphere of these books and simply cannot get enough!

A wonderful second book in The Lost Bride trilogy!
A novel that has it all - historical fiction, historical thriller, contemporary fiction, mystery and fantasy.
Inheritance (the first book in the trilogy) leaves us with quite a cliff hangar at the end and The Mirror picks up right where it left off.
A captivating story of multiple weddings performed at Lost Brides Manor. Seven brides marry and soon after die under very frightening circumstances. Returning main characters work together to try to break the centuries old curse.
A constantly evolving plot leads to a very compelling read!
Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy of this audiobook in return for my honest review.

Absolutely enjoyed this second installment and can’t wait for the next!
Thanks to Macmillan Audio for the ARC provided by NetGalley for my honest review.

The Mirror by Nora Robert’s was a great follow up to the first book, Inheritance, in the Lost Brides Trilogy series. I enjoyed that The Mirror picked up right from the point that The Inheritances left off. Chloe had moved in with Sonya and had settled in nicely making great use of the studio Chloe set up to complete the art she had promised to Owen in exchange for him building her a boat. Sonya and Trey do not disappoint either as their relationship has deepened. Chloe and Owen have finally given in to their feelings for each other. Cooking has become very important to Chloe and she derived lots of pleasure from cooking for her friends. In The Mirror, Sonya begins to feel an urgent pull towards the mirror every time one of her departed relatives wanted Sonya to witness something that happened to one of them long ago. Sonya feels the summoning sometimes at 3 in the morning and sometimes in broad daylight. She feels defenseless to resist even though all of her friends have insisted that she should be accompanied by one of them. The pull had become so strong at times that Sonya was unable to hesitate or deviate in any manner. All of them, Sonya, Chloe, Trey and Owen have pledged to break Hester Dobb’s curse on the Poole manor house any way they can. They are tired of her tactics that she used to try and scare them away. Life for Sonya and Chloe at Poole Manor was good if they ignored the constant presence of Hester Dobbs. Will they figure out a way to free Poole Manor from the curse Hester Dobbs placed on Poole Manor all those years ago and finally rid Poole Manor of Hester Dobbs all together? I can’t wait for the last book in The Lost Bride Trilogy to find out. I listened to the audiobook of The Mirror that was brilliantly narrated by Brittany Pressley.
