I loved the characters and what they thought about each other as well as what they did to become what they really wanted with one another.
Fantastic, love conquers all, your past doesn’t define whom you are
Very satisfying. I read as fast as I could, but was sad and happy when I finished. I wanted more. I think I live in the wrong century. I always sigh when I finish a book.
Very entertaining book
Cute storyline

When I got this book I was intrigued by the title. Both Lady Helena’s and Nicholas’s heartache throughout the book made my heart ache for them. An entertaining and suspenseful read.
I loved this book… everything about it… would read again in time
