Synopsis: Kev Merripen has longed for the beautiful, well-bred Winnifred Hathaway ever since her family rescued him from the brink of death when he was just a boy. But this handsome Gypsy is a man of mysterious origins-and he fears that the darkness of his past could crush delicate, luminous Win. So Kev refuses to submit to temptation...and before long Win is torn from him by a devastating twist of fate.
Then, Win returns to England...only to find that Kev has hardened into a man who will deny love at all costs. Meantime, an attractive, seductive suitor has set his sights on Win. It's now or never for Kev to make his move. But first, he must confront a dangerous secret about his destiny-or risk losing the only woman he has lived for...
Review: I really enjoyed this book. I jumped right into it after Mine Till Midnight because I couldn't wait to read Win and Kev's story. While a very good book, it didn't grab onto me quite the same as MTM. It took me longer to finish it. I felt that it might have been best if Kleypas had distanced the couple from Amelia and Cam. Cam is so large as a character, I felt like Kev was falling into his shadow when the two were in scenes together. Even when they weren't, I still focused more on Cam. We learn more about these two mysterious Gypsys in this book and their conections to eachother. Facinating. And Leo, the loser brother, is in it as well, of course. He is less loser-ish, though I am still not a huge fan of his. I will be disgruntled if she gives him his own story. I will graciously allow him to have a side story in her future books, but please, I'd rather not read a whole book about him!
