Orphaned and besieged, Princess Alesandra knew that only a hasty marriage to an Englishman could protect her from the turmoil in her own land. To the amusement of her makeshift guardian, Colin, younger brother of the Marquess of Cainewood, the bold, raven-haired beauty instantly captivated London society. But when Alesandra was nearly abducted by her unscrupulous countrymen, the fighting … instincts that won Colin a knighthood for valor were rekindled. Deceiving himself that he wanted only to protect her, Colin swept her into a union meant to be a marriage in name alone… yet Alesandra’s tender first kiss and hesitant caress ignited a wildfire in his soul.

Wonderful characters, happy ending g…who could ask for more?
Julie Garwood is truly one of the best writers I have ever read. I would buy one of her books without reading what the story is all about, because her books are never a disappointment.
Love all her books!
Sigh. Julie Garwood couldn’t write a bad historical romance if she tried. If you are new to the genre, start with ANY of her books.
Always a joy to read anything Garwood
I love all of her historical romances…I own the paperbacks & am replacing them with Kindle format. I’ve read them all more than once! Strong women characters.
NEVER read a book of hers I didn’t enjoy or like! Seeing her name is all I need to see to read it or buy it!!
Needless to say, Julie Garwood is one of the two queens of historical romances. The other being, Judith McNaught. I wish we had BookBub back when I first started reading romance thirteen years ago. Because my feed would be full of Julie Garwood’s novels. In fact, hers was the VERY first romance novel I’d read: Prince Charming.
Anyway, Castles is …
All four books from the Crown’s Spies series are wonderful, but this is my favorite. I love a strong, sassy heroine, and Princess Alesandra is the perfect match for Colin. If you’ve never read a Garwood historical romance, you’re missing out!
Great characters with spirit, stand alone story but part of one of my all time favorite series.
Love the characters in this book. I also love that you get to see some of the other characters from different books back again.
This book grabbed my attention with it’s adventure, romance and suspense that kept me reading to the end.
I enjoyed the book and liked the characters.
Another thoroughly enjoyable book by Ms Garwood. The plot was satisfying, if a bit predictable, and there were a couple of issues not fully explained, but still, an entertaining read.
Enjoyed this read. Liked the characters and the storyline kept me engaged. I recommend this book for an enjoyable page turning read!
I love, love, love every book I have read from this author!!!
