Daisy has been given an ultimatum by her father, find a noble to wed within two months, or he will marry her to his Bostonian protégé, Matthew Swift. Daisy has known Mr. Swift for years, he is just like her father, ruthless, domineering and aloof, no one a free spirit such as Daisy has any interest in. However, when Mr. Swift arrives at the Westcliff he is much different than Daisy remembers.

Matthew Swift has loved Daisy since meeting her years before and has never met a woman who can live up to the ideal that is her. However, as much as a marriage to Daisy is his dream come true, the truth of his past is a nightmare which will never allow them to be together.

Lisa Kleypas has a reputation as being one of the best historical romance writers and after reading this story, I can see why. I truly enjoyed the story immensely, more so than Devil in Winter. Daisy and Matthew make a wonderful pair and the heat between them fairly leaps off the page. I loved their courtship, such as it was and found the ending to be quite satisfying. I would have no problem recommending this story, even to someone who has not read any other historical romances, Kleypas' works or even the first three books of the series. The story worked very well as a stand alone and does not disappoint. ( )
