Summary: Very nice reading; wonderful characters!
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this tale of the "Ice Witch" and the "Devil's Disciple." Both the heroine and hero have retreated behind the facades that society has labled them with. Although the tangled past of each character is a little hard to follow, the details do eventually come out. Jane Grantly and Vernon (The Earl of Royce) are both wonderful characters. I loved how each sees behind their masks of indifference to fall in love! Jane's Aunt Elsbeth and her own romance is a wonderful side story. All the secondary characters are well fleshed out. The children added a nice element to the story also. The story preaches a bit about not believing everything you hear (namely all that horrible gossip) which I found a little tiresome. I supppose the author wanted to bring the point home since much revolves around looking past what is said to what a person does. Some of the incidents that occur are unbelievable but this is fiction! Read it with an open mind and you will find a fun tale with the requisite happy ending. This is my first book by this author. She has others that I will be checking out for.
