Summary: One of the all time best ever
Comment: I love to read and usually finish a book a day. Yesterday was the first time I have ever read a book by Catherine Anderson. What a wonderful treat. Luke and Cassie are so real that you become completely and totally engrossed in their story. By the end I couldn't see the words on the pages because I was crying so hard. Seldom does a book make me lose myself in it like this one. I can't wait to read all the rest of her stories. This is simply one of the best romance novels I have ever read.
Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderful Story!!!
Comment: I love to read historical romances among other things. This is the first book I've read by Catherine Anderson and it was a great story. Luke is such a selfish rogue in the beginning that I immediately disliked him because of his selfishness, wanting to hire a paid companion and no less an innocent like Cassie. Then having her father and brother thrown in jail so that he could have what he wanted but this is where the story took off for me. I love Nora Roberts' books because like this one they all have a good plot. I've found another wonderful author in Ms. Anderson.

Summary: An almost great love story
Comment: I had very high hopes for this novel. I've always liked the bad boy type hero and Luke is certainly that. In fact, as other reviewers have noted, he's so ruthless at the beginning of the book that I almost disliked him. However, I liked that Catherine Anderson gave us such a hero because he's much more realistic this way. Having been raised in a brothel by his abusive, prostitute mother, and having also been sexually molested as a child, is it any wonder that he would be so hard? He needed Cassandra's sweetness to redeem him.
So why not 5 stars? Unlike many of the other reviewers, I really couldn't countenance Cassandra after a while. Her total naivite was unrealistic and nerve-racking after a while. She believed in lepraucans for goodness sake! I mean, after all the really broad hints that Luke gave her about what he wanted out of their relationship, she didn't understand?? She'd never heard of the phrase "wifely duties"? I just can't buy that someone would be that naive. It bordered on stupid (indeed it passed that border many times). I almost didn't finish reading it after she repeatedly refused to forgive Luke and only did forgive him at the very end because he said "I love you." That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever read. Despite his initial deception, how could she not know he loved her after all he'd done for her and her little brother?? Come on, how stupid and silly can a person be. Besides, it seemed like in the end that she would have chosen to stay with her father over going back to Luke if her father hadn't changed his mind about Luke. I guess I just thought that the love was uneven here. Luke seemed to love Cassandra a lot more than she loved him
