I really enjoyed this book. I thought it was an interesting book with good characters and a realistic plot. I thought the book had sexual tension between the characters that was appropriate for their relationship, since they are married. A great book!

I found this book to be very informative of the way England had some of the colonies settled. I liked the book very much.

This was an absolutely wonderful book. It was so good I read it through twice in two days. I would highly recommend it anyone looking for a sweet, romantic story.

I LOVED this book! I could NOT put it down. At parts I was crying and at others anxious for what happens next! I have also read Measure of a lady, and Courting trouble. They were also quit good. Though they WERE a bit in depth about some things, but over all they were fabulous!

Against her will, Constance was sold as a bride. But through her ordeals, she began to know the man she was with and saw his good points and grew to love and care for him deeply, showing that even though we go through bad times and face difficulties, we can make the best of things and become content and actually like where we are in life. It was a very enjoyable book and I couldn't wait to read more of Deeanne Gist's books.

Lady Constance became such a real charater to me. I could feel all her fustration, pain and love through this book. How often are we misunderstood in the world. How often do we try to communicate one thing and it comes out as another. I have became a great fan of Deeanne Gist and have moved on to read "The Measure of a Lady" which I am enjoying very much.

Wonderfully written! I loved it from beginning to end. I couldn't put the book down. I can't wait to read more of her books.

I just finished another one of Deeanne's books. I wish she could write them faster because each one is captivating. I was moved by the love of Constance and Drew; most of all, the love they had for Christ. Why, as Christians, do we fight the passion of love for our Savior as our Groom and the love of a mate? A wife cannot really passionately love her husband unless she first has a passionate love for Christ. Some of the comments are interesting...Mothers, your daughters are learning about lust in the world; please let them see it through a Christian woman's view. I can't for the next novel. Thank you, Deeanne!
