Description
Revisit book one in Kat Martin's fan-favorite Heart trilogy!As publisher of the weekly London ladies' gazette Heart to Heart, Krista Hart is known for her outspoken views on such unpopular issues as social reform--risking her reputation and her very safety with every controversial article. She refuses to be intimidated, although she knows full well it makes her the target of angry opposition.
When she encounters a powerful Viking descendant imprisoned as a local sideshow attraction, Krista show more angrily demands his release. Although she tells herself that freeing Leif Draugr is simply the right thing to do, she can't deny being attracted to the fierce Nordic chieftain, especially after her father transforms him into a "proper" English gentleman.
But as anonymous threats against Krista become more and more aggressive, it is Leif who must face the enemies desperate to silence her, even as they push her closer into the embrace of a warrior prepared to do whatever it takes to make her his.

This is definitely not her best work, and the problems that are in this book are the same ones that tend to plague all of her books. . . once you read one, you pretty much know the whole plot of all the rest. But it is a romance novel so how much can you really ask of it. bottom line, if you like period romance, you'll probably like this.
No her best
