Summary: Good (it's Kleypas so it would be surprising if it were bad)
Review: While I didn't like this novel and it's prequel (Somewhere I'll Find You) as much as I do some of Kleypas's other novels, it was still a good read. I read Somewhere I'll Find You first, and I wondered then whether Kleypas would get around to writing a love story about Logan. Well, this is Logan's story, and as with all Klepas novels, the love is intense and the passion is hot.

I think the reason that I didn't like this as much as say, Dreaming of You, was because I just didn't think that Madeline was a special enough character for Logan. When readers are introduced to Logan in Somewhere I'll Find You, he is portrayed as a man who is almost immune to all women (i.e., immune other than for bedroom partners). I thought at that time that if Kleypas did write Logan's story, she'd really have to create an extra special female heroine to convince readers that such a woman could snag the elusive Logan. Yes, Madeline is spirited, but she's not all that different from your standard romance novel heroine. As such, I just couldn't see a man like Logan, who's resisted more women than he can count, suddenly falling for the typical heroine.

However, other than this, it's a good novel (Kleypas doesn't write many bad ones--but Midnight Angel comes to mind in that category) and well worth reading.
