I was sorely disappointed with this story; I thought it was rather flat. Fiona drove me nuts with her persistant stubborness about not accepting help from Aidan. And the ending was too rushed, too pat. Not Ms. James' best effort.

Whacking good bodice ripper!
She writes risque gothic novels while supporting a mother she's afraid is gone mad. She's also afraid she's being stalked. He came home to England from military service in the Punjab wounded at heart. He's instantly attracted when they meet, and the more he learns of her, the more he knows she's the one for him. So he sets out on campaign to claim her heart while trying to quell her unspoken fears.
Lots of passion and lots of love.

Love the McBrides but this story was not my favorite. I really hate it when a heroine claims she's not afraid, she doesn't need anyone's help, hides crucial information and then walks straight into harms way. The hero has to work twice as hard to save her from herself. Fiona was a shrew. Aidan had the patience of a saint and should have cut her loose right from the start.
