Overall I enjoyed this book very much and recommend it to anyone that likes historical romances.  I picked this book up when it free. I wasn't expecting much when I started reading it, but by the end of chapter one I was pleasantly surprised. The book is well written (except for a few misspelled Spanish words that were missing the letter ñ). The book flows smoothly. The character development is good. The h was my type of h: strong, independent, intelligent, headstrong, spirited, kind hearted and of course quite beautiful. She's carried a torch for the H since she was a little girl; while the H fights it, he too feels a strong attraction towards the h. There's chemistry and good love scenes between the H/h. I didn't have to fish through tons of dialogue to get to the good parts. As the blurb implies there is a mystery of sorts with regard to the h's birth/ancestry/identify. IMO the mystery was nicely woven into the book. The only reason why I did not give the book 5 stars is because...could be considered somewhat of a spoiler...I would have preferred the H to have professed his love to the h in a grander way. He was so darn stubborn about the whole love thing. He loved her. He knew it and everyone that knew him knew it.  He treated her with love but he just couldn't say the words. That hurt the h and because of that I felt he should have been the star of a good grovel scene. I think he got off too easy.  :)
