PLEASE NOTE: It is critical that the reader has already read MY BELOVED (see below) before starting this book. Stephen and Anne find a book that Julianna (from book 1) has left behind with Julianna and Sebastian's story. This story is 400 years later than the first one in this series.
Throughout Anne Sinclair's life, she has had visions of Stephen Harrington. now Earl of Langlinais of England. These visions and dreams have troubled her so much that she has decided that she must be a witch, or at least be demented. Finally, at the age of 23, she decides to travel from Scotland to England and find the man she has been dreaming about. What is odd is that she leaves her home in the midst of a country-wide war. When she meets Stephen, she feels that she knows him and Langlinais. This story is told before the backdrop of the English Civil War, between the Royalists and the Parliamentarians. Stephen is a Royalist.
The story seemed slow. I'm sorry to say that it then turned hokey. By the end of the book, I was ready to throw it against the wall. Coincidences heaped on coincidences made me wince. Just awful.

Could this handsome warrior really be the one true love Anne Sinclair has dreamed of all her life? And now that she has found passion in his arms, how will she know he'll be hers forever?
Good book to read.
