Ο Τρέβορ Κινγκ θεώρησε πολύ φυσικό να προσφέρει το μαντίλι του στην άγνωστη κοπέλα που έκλαιγε στο πάρκο. Εκείνο που δεν περίμενε όμως ήταν να του αυτοσυστηθεί εκείνη ως μέλλουσα σύζυγός του! Στην αρχή σκέφτηκε να το βάλει στα πόδια. Δεν είχε καν στο μυαλό του το γάμο και μάλιστα με μια άγνωστη κοπέλα που ισχυριζόταν πως ήταν μέντιουμ! Αλλά αυτό δεν ήταν η μόνη έκπληξη, γιατί η περιέργειά του τον έσπρωξε να μάθει ένα σωρό άλλα πράγματα για την Τέιλορ Σάνον και να βάλει σε δοκιμασία τηςν αντίστασή του. Αυτό όμως ως τη στιγμή που κοντά της ένιωσε την πιο συγκλονιστική εμπειρία της ζωής του - την αληθινή, απέραντη αγάπη...
3.5 Stars He was engaged to the OW, he cared or loved her enough to get engaged and almost married her and changed his mind, one of the reasons is that the OW didn't want a teenager living with them. Then the H realized that he wouldn't be happy with her. But the h is the pursuer here and he didn't want to marry her. WTF. I didn't like it. He gave to the OW own his free will while the heroine browbeat him? And he only accept that he belonged to her after she saved his brother? It's like she need to be proved to be worth of him. That he would not withhold from her. While he gave freely to the OW, the heroine need to proved to be worth? WTF. Most of the heroes from Kay Hooper are besotted with the heroine but this H is in the lacking category. And he didn't deserve her.

Probably my favourite category romance by Kay Hooper, writing as Kay Robbins, with "Time After Time" a close second and of course the Hagen series. I'll read anything she writes!
I read this for the first time when it came out in 1986 and still love it, as I do anything Kay Hooper writes, although her books are a lot darker now.
Reread in spring 2018.
Reread in March 2023 to lighten up my reading after rereading the entire Bishop series.
