Every time I read a book by Karen Ranney, I fall more in love with her. This book Is just as wonderful as the rest. As I was reading the book, I couldn't wait to share it. The book was originally published in 1999, so It's another book that I can't believe I missed it.

The hero and heroine are wonderfully perfect. The storyline is more than original enough to keep you interested from start to finish. If you enjoy books with historical references than this is a good book to enjoy some Templar fun. It is not too heavy on actual facts, it's used more as a back drop.

One of the more interesting parts of this book is that the hero has been diagnosed with a skin disorder that he believes to contagious. It made the story different in that the hero and heroine couldn't touch - so there was no heavy seduction involved. Just 2 people with burdens and problems,NRA ling in love.

Beautiful and well worth the read.
