They are both determined but both attracted and her past is going to haunt her. It's an interesting story with a great female character who is determined t...
This was rather tedious. I am disappointed that Ferdy didn't get a better story. But this didn't have much depth and no real love story. Some physical stuff and also some very unprobable turns. The twist with Viola's father was pretty much obvious from the beginning and the whole story was ext...
Dash it, i have considered Mary Balogh one of my favorite Historical romance authors, even if I had read only one of her books, besides this one. The first one of this saga was almost perfect.
