Sequel to For My Lady's Heart, possibly a bit more of Kinsale's signature "prolonging the agony" than the average romance fan can withstand, but very, very well written. Not for fans of light romance, yet almost too good to be termed anything other than some of the best literature the romance genre has to offer.

The followup book to Kinsale's "For My Lady's Heart," "Shadow Heart" continues the tale of the dark and complex Allegreto. As the front notes say, this story is a real roller coaster ride and you'll be on the edge of your seat to the very end. Not many stories move me to tears. This one did. Just be sure to read "For My Lady's Heart" FIRST.

Outstanding, dark romance set in the middle ages primarily in the principality of Monteverde. Disturbingly violent sex w/ sub/dom and S&M/Bondage overtones in part, but emotionally intense and gripping. What a tour de force. Going on my keeper shelf. 5 stars.

Follow up to "For My Lady's Heart." The pain/sex thing was a little wierd for me but otherwise it was a good story. I wish she had given an epilogue at the end.
