Editorial Reviews
"Featherstone knows how to write sexy...titillating and well-written characters and their relationships." -RT Book Reviews
"A wonderful old-fashioned love story is at the very heart of this novel. Agreeably outside of the norm with its damaged hero, it also has plenty of sizzle and emotional clout."-RT Book Reviews on Addicted
