This book grabbed my attention from the first chapter. It has prompted me to buy many other novels by Bronwyn Williams as their writing enticed and excited me. I fell in love with the characters in this novel and I wish I could read a sequel about the rest of their lives. I seriously recommend this novel if you enjoy historical romance.

I love a good historical novel, and this qualifies as a good one. A total alpha, Cabel is a sea-hardened man with a sharp temper and Maggie has enough fire and devotion to break through to his heart.
