Review: This is a wonderfully warm novel with real people and real people problems but lots of love and a feisty heroine! Enjoy!

This is the first book by Christi Caldwell that I've read (found out we both love McNaught books from the '90's) and I have to tell you from page 2 I was in love with Emmaline and loved her. The hero, I knew had great pain (from fighting Napoleon & the battle scars) and he had that  and his own self-distrust  which put him into a "shell" of his own misery.It took the intrepid Emmaline and his best friend Sin plus a loving (for once in these books) father to help him discover he was human! It took Emmaline to teach him there's two sides to every story and break his shell.This is a book that you will be very sorry to finish BUT you will love the "ride" and enjoy the humor here and there of the Duke Sabastian (Emmaline's brother) and how he keeps being set-down by his sister and mother.  There are several characters that I have high hopes will have their own books.  BUY THIS BOOK and enjoy the story and all the love.  IF, like me, you are a gardener you will find even more enjoyment here and there in the story!  I just wish I could read it again for the first time.
