After living in India for several years, Christian has returned to England to serve as guardian to his friends now orphaned daughter. Along with making Sophie comfortable in his home, the Moor House, he hopes her beloved aunt Megan will be agreeable to reacquaint herself with him as she is the only woman he has ever loved. Seven years prior when he was deeply in love with Megan, his father summoned him to London and found himself married two weeks later to a despicable spoiled woman that he had no feelings of affection.

Upon seeing the handsome Christian after all these years, Megan steels herself against the feelings she knows are buried but not gone...the fact that she still loves him after all these years. She has agreed to accompany Sophie to the Moor House if only to see her niece settled in the care of Christian. She doesn't realize that what seemed like a careless move on her brothers part to remove Sophie from her care was really an attempt to bring Christian back into Megans life as he knows she will never love another man.

Tutto sommato carino anche se ho trovato i protagonisti un po' "mosci" per i miei gusti...lei, in eterna attesa (insomma, dopo essere stata mollata ad un passo dal fidanzamento io qualche spiegazione, allora o adesso, la pretenderei....e invece nada XD), lui se non fosse per l'amico morente (e sul finale per la coppia di scapestrati personaggi secondari XD) avrebbe vagato per l'India fino alla morte invece di correre a riprendersi il suo grande amore appena la possibilità si fosse presentata (ossia anni or sono! D:) Piccola nota: non ho capito a cosa si riferisce l'immagine di copertina...non c'entra nulla con la storia XD

4.5 stelline.
Romanzo storico davvero godibile con quel pizzico di suspense che mi piace sempre tanto.
I due protagonisti mi sono piaciuti, specialmente Christian. Anche Miranda non è male, soprattutto perché non è stata ingiusta nei confronti dell'uomo che ama. Belli anche i personaggi secondari, in special modo Giles, il fratello minore di Christian.
Lo stile di scrittura di Anne Ashley mi è piaciuto: scorrevole, attento e romantico.
Promosso!
