5/5 stars
How have I never read a book by Ms. Hoyt before is beyond me. I simply loved this book. The characters were great and plot was very entertaining. The way Megs and Godric go from married strangers to a true loving married couple was a very emotional journey for both of them and I'm glad I was along for their second chance to find love. With both of them having former loves the push and pull of their relationship was a great way to reintroduce them to each other after being separated for two years. Add in the mystery of the Ghost of St. Giles and this was just a perfect example of what the historical romance genre is all about.
I read this book without having read the previous books in the series and didn't feel as if I missed out on too much, though reading in order would help in the introduction of certain key characters in this book. I will be going back and reading the series from the beginning including this one again. Recommend to lovers of the historical romance genre.
