The Thrilling ending to Kat Martins Necklace Trilogy, this book was just as great as the first two. The Brides Necklace, and The Devils Necklace. We got to talk with the characters from the other books again, and we finally see Rafe get what he needs. His beautiful Dani. As with the other books in the series, this is well written with some unseen twists and turns to keep it exciting. I am sad the series is over, but would highly recommend it to anyone else who loves Historical Romances.

This is the third book of the Necklace Trilogy. This was my favorite of the three books. All of them were excellent reads. The first two books are: "The Bride's Necklace" and "The Devil's Necklace". These books do not need to be read in order although any series of books is always better when read in order.

This is the 3rd volume of the Bride's Necklace trilogy and is probably the best of the 3. They're all really good, but this had more adventure.

This was a great book on the Regency period. I wish I had read the two other books in the trilogy first.
A Regency novel with lots of lusty scenes.
Wonderful book. Last in the Bride's necklace series.

This was a great series and will be read again. You really enjoy the history and details of the story and each of the characters and how the necklace effects each one of them. A really good read!

This is Kat Martin's third book tied in with the stunning diamond and pearl necklace, which may or may not have some mysterious mystical powers . . .
From back cover: Five years ago Rafael, Duke of Sheffield, believed he was betrayed by the woman he loved and the pain haunts him still. When Rafe discovers that he was cruelly tricked, and that Danielle Duval was never unfaithful, he’s desperate to win her back. But Dani is already on a steamer bound for America to marry another man. Impulsively, Rafe follows her and, trapping her in a compromising situation, quickly makes her his wife.
Promising her that with time he can prove his love and win her trust, Rafe presents her with a stunning necklace rumored to hold great power. As much as Dani wants to believe it can right the wrongs of the past, she fears there is one truth it cannot conceal, a truth that could cost her this second chance with Rafe, the only man she has ever loved

Five years ago, a wrong was done to a young lady by a duke and being young and in love, he made her pay for what he thought she did to him. So now he wants to do right with her and still forces her to do things that she doesn't want to do. It was a very good book.
From Publishers Weekly
In the fast-paced final volume of Martin's Regency trilogy that began with The Bride's Necklace, Danielle Duval and Rafael, Duke of Sheffield, meet again in London, five years after scandal ended their engagement. When Rafe investigates and learns that he and Dani were victims of a plot to prevent their marriage, he pursues Dani to America, where she's traveling to wed another. Repeated episodes of romantic tension lead to sizzling love scenes, but Rafe's constant distrust of Dani and his use of blackmail to force her to marry him make him come across as a little too high-handed and arrogant. The author's well-honed ability to deliver spicy romance is undercut by a hero with whom most readers will find it hard to believe the heroine will live happily-ever-after. (Jan.)

The Duke needed to see who really betrayed him.
Not my favorite of the series, but liked it well enough anyhow.

The final book in Martin's necklace triology. This is the story of Rafael (he's the Duke of Sheffield) and Danielle Duval, the girl who had been his fiance five years earlier. After finding her in bed with his good friend, he broke the engagement, and, as a result of the ensuing scandal, she was utterly and completely shunned by London society. She and Rafael run into each other after five years......

all 3 books are a good read
The third book in a trilogy of a diamond and pearl necklace that has powers for those in love and it is absolutely amazing how the characters so fully believe in its power. The characters are the same as in the first two triologies and they are more fully developed. You can't help but love the heroine, Danielle, who suffers so much and yet has a fortitude some of us may wish that we had. A must read!
Wonderful read...one of her best so far
Book #3 in the Bride's Necklace trilogy. This time the necklace travels to America and back before it completes its mission.
A romantic and entertaining trilogy; I loved it.
