Román Krása medzi ruinami vás zavedie na drsnú škótsku vysočinu počas prvej svetovej vojny do zotavovne pre vojakov. Stretnutie búrlivej americkej prominentky Lily Durhamovej a mrzutého škótskeho šľachtica Aleca MacGregora prináša iskriace dialógy, humor a silnú romantickú chémiu, ktorá knihu robí výbornou oddychovkou. Okrem romantiky príbeh rieši aj duševné rany veteránov, obsahuje intrigy a záhady a gradujúci dej s príjemne prekvapivým záverom.
