Blurb: (from back cover) "Lady Ann Gascoigne is eager to take her wedding vows-until she discovers her devious fiance has conspired to let King Charless II steal her virtue. To save her honor and her life, she must flee under the protection of a notorious but charming rake who has just escaped hanging-only to be captured by Anne's heart...
"The illegitimate son of a powerful man, John Gilbert lives by his wits and his sword, leading a merry band of men who rob the rich and corrupt, then escape to a forest hideaway. As proper Lady Anne blossoms under John's command, opening up to the freedom and sensuality he offers, she poses a new set of challenges for him-to stay alive long enough to ensure her protection, earn an equal place by her side, and convince her of his undying love..."
Opinion: I'm not a fan of historical romance and this book reinforces it. Other than the historical nature, the book isn't all that bad. For a more complete review, visit MyShelf.
