I am just reading this book. Wow Laura Kinsale has written a HR like no other. This Romance is between a Highwayman with an injury and a young girls desire for revenge and justice. The Highwayman falls in love but the young woman’s heart is hard and bitter and she feels nothing but hate and vengeance. Will the Highwayman help her overcome her troubled heart? Will they both find happiness? There are many different characters; a special wolf and some horses along with minor town folk in France and England. I hope many HRBC members read it. I gave this four stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
