From the Publisher
"This refreshing novel in which the heroine overcomes hardship, sticks to her ideals and is satisfied with what happiness life brings her is carried off without sticky sentimentality, Machiavellian wickedness or salacious sex scenes." —Publishers Weekly
"Ibbotson has distinguished herself before in the historical-romance field . . . but her newest sets her way apart from other genre writers. Here, she provides not only charm, but intelligent prose and a character with finely tuned sensibilities." —Kirkus Reviews
