Love the story, just didn't like the paper that was used to print on it. It's more of the silky kind that makes it hard to turn the page, but overall it was nice. The story keeps you wanted more and the characters are great. the only other think that was bad about was it tend to write in other language which i didn't really now and used a lot of the slang word or when a servant talk, makes it hard to read. The usage of it is too much in the book.
Kathleen Woodiwiss' books are very good, especially at the time of reading them but they all seem to be the same. So much the same that they are forgettable. I accidentally ordered this book and I had already read it so I didn't even open the package. BUT she is a good author with good stories, I'm just trying to find new books.
I had read these books over 20 years ago, want to re read them this author writes books you can't put down they are so addicting, and one of the books in this bundle I have not read, felt price was right, excellent buy.
My wife loves it
