Not the best LK novel I've read, but this was pretty good and I'm eager to read the rest of the story, but I must admit, Cam is not my ideal kind of hero.

I wanted to like this more. I had read the 3 contemp Kleypas novels and enjoyed all of them and decided to try her historicals once more. This calls itself the start of a new series but has characters from another seires in it. It just didn't pull me. I would read 10 pages, put it down, read anotehr book, read 10 more pages and then forget about it. I dont' know why, I read loads of historical romances and I really enjoyed her contemps but somehow these historicals don't pull me in. (

Absolutely delightful. I'm so thrilled Cam got a book! I've been madly in love with him ever since he stole that kiss from Daisy. ;) This book was wonderfully passionate and utterly enchanting. Kleypas has once again proved herself a master -- Mine Till Midnight is a superb historical romance. (

1st book in the series....Great story; dark hero and responsible/strong heroine; Theres more characters to love, and it gives the story more depth. You find yourself more involved in the story, and more involved in the family as a whole, which I find very refreshing. (

"'I know all about probability and odds," Rohan agreed. "Nevertheless, I believe in luck." He smiled with a quiet smolder in his eyes that caused her breath to catch. "I believe in magic and mystery, and dreams that reveal the future. And I belive some things are written in the stars .... or even in the palm of your hand."' -pg. 29
