With what's left of her family relying on her to marry well and save them all, Alicia Palmer is faced with accepting the offer of a man more than twice her age, the man who killed her brother, or a masked, crippled man she does not know. 
 From the start, I really liked Alicia and I wanted her to find some happiness. The details in this novel are just wonderful and really drew me in immediately. Donna Hatch's writing style is enjoyable, and the fact that she is an author who keeps her books clean, makes me love the world she has created even more. 
 If I had to find anything I didn't like, it would be some of the contractions used ('she'd, he'd, and so on). They aren't necessarily used incorrectly but I did notice them quite a few times. 
 I would definitely recommend this for any readers who want a historical read that's clean and fun with just the hint of mystery.
