I have read this book so many times I have lost count. I love this book, it is an amazing read. If you love Historicals and haven't read this please do your self a favor read this book.
From the moment i picked it up, 'whitney, my love' was hard to put down, I even spent most of the night up readin it saying one more chapter and then going to bed.
A story of obsession, devotion, hatered, distrust and love all roled into one. This is the story of Clayton Westmoreland and Whitney Stone. From the moment Clayton met Whitney, he was drawn to her, and she had nothing but contempt for him. She arrives home to england to home, father and and unknown of betothel.
In this book it is a battle of wills between Clayton and Whitney, neither wanting to give in to the other, and yet both loving eachother (albeit more than they would like to admit). Overall, this was an excelllent read, and one of McNaughts finest that I have read.
