Kirkus
As [readers] revel in Kat's clear-as-a-bell, first-person observations of Tudor England's dangerous liaisons and fairy-tale gowns, teens will also relate to a girl who struggles not only to find her place but to know her heart.

School Library Journal
"Intrigue, romance, and period details abound in this riveting story of Tudor England. The sophisticated writing flows well, and the author does a terrific job of integrating historical details . . ."

Coffee Time Romance (Five Cups of Coffee)
"The Stolen One is a remarkable tale overflowing with mystery and drama. As a fan of English history, I was unable to put the book down until I read it cover to cover. The characters came to life through this story, bringing Queen Elizabeth to reality in my mind’s eye. I feel honored to be privy to the inner workings of the Queen’s inner circle, even if only through fiction."

Fantastic Book Review (Five Stars)
"This novel is beautifully written, I was fascinated with Katherine’s story and how it tied into Queen Elizabeth’s period. I love the characters in this book. Kat is a strong protagonist and she’s very outspoken which is not what one would expect in her era for a woman. The depiction of Queen Elizabeth is fascinating. I was also intrigued by the inner working of the Queen’s court. I loved the details about the designs and stitch work on the Queen’s gowns. Crowley did an amazing job with the imagery, it was like viewing everything through Kat’s eyes and I relished every minute of it. I wish I could express how outstanding this book is, but I can’t find the words because it is much more than what I’ve written but I don’t want to spoil anything. Find out for yourself!"

Reading Rocks

" . . .Crowley's writing is fluid and captivating."

Romance Reader at Heart
"Enchanting"

Bulletin of the Center For Children's Books
"Crowley has a wonderful time playing with the historical rumor mongering that continue(d) to surround Queen Elizabeth 1, weaving the tittle-tattle together . . . (not to mention the burrows of fictionalized dirt concerning courtly dalliances) into an intriguing mystery.  Young adults bewitched by romance, scandal, and yards and yards of jewel encrusted fabric will sink happily into the nearest comfortable chair to imbibe the juice from the royal grapevine."

Dr. Ruth Cox Clark
Young Adult and Children's Literature Professor
    "Crowley has weaved a lush tale of love and intrigue as elaborate as the stitches on the dress, a personal gift for the Queen, that Kat is embellishing with creatures, both light and dark. The historical figures of Elizabethan England come to life on the pages of The Stolen One as real as the author-created characters - no history lesson here as often happens with an author less skilled - who come so vividly to life that the reader's mouth waters as Kat bites into a luscious pear from her beloved's orchard and noses wrinkle in disgust along with Kat's as she is bombarded by her first breath of the putrid air of London . . . Make sure you have a tall glass of iced tea next to you as you will lose track of time while wandering country lanes or castle hallways with Kat."

Presenting Lenore
    "To say I was enthralled is an understatement. In fact, I wish it could have been even longer than its’ 416 pages because Kat was such an appealing character to hang out with – curious, bright, passionate, and unpredictable. I loved the vividly realized historical details of the court and fashions of the time. Oh and I loved the writing  . . ."

Carrie's YA Bookshelf
   "I love historical fiction, especially historical fiction that is set during Elizabethan time. I love the novels of Philippa Gregory and Jean Plaidy, and I believe this book from Suzanne Crowley deserves a spot amongst these greats of the genre.  This book is beautifully written and captured me from the very first page. Kat is an incredibly vivid character and the book is written in such a way that you really get inside her head and live the events right along with her."

Anderson's Bookshop
   One of the best YA historical fiction novels I've read in a very long while!  Set duing the reign of Elizabeth this is the story of Kat, a willful redheaded beauty in search of her true identity.  Full of mystery, court intrigue, and romance, this will capture readers of all ages.  I was sorry to turn the last page and have this one-sitter come to an end!

   A lovely historical novel for teens set in Elizabethan England. The author did a wonderful job at bringing to life the setting of Elizabethan England, and the very different ways of life in the countryside, the city, and at court. Although this book is written for teen readers, I think adults who love historical fiction will enjoy it is as well - it is a wonderful blend of history, romance, and the classic story of a young woman's search for her identity and where she belongs in the world.
