Nicholas decides to marry Faith to solve (he thinks) her and his problems. The excitement comes right from the beginning when Faith is running for her virtue from 3 drunken Spanish men (in Spain) and runs into Nicholas who saves her. This story of Faith and Nicholas is an exciting and well written one! I liked it much better than the first two books. This can be a read alone story but you will miss much about the family and the history of why Faith reacts to some situations as she does. Heather Wilds is an excellent narrator and creates voices that suits the characters. There is sex and sexual tension, but this is one of things I like about romance novels. You will love Faith's story and the supporting characters as well. The jest of the story is about learning to love, and working to make a respectful, strong relationship. Many sad stories interwoven into this as it was the aftermath of war and loss. Therefore, I wasn't anticipating the turn of events that befell Faith. At the end of book two it suggested that Faith had taken off with the flamboyant violinist and I had decided that was a mistake.

It was unexpected that this would be the book I enjoyed the most. Not often do I cry from stories, but this one had me in tears. I have enjoyed reading this series on the Merridew sisters, however, this third book kept me enthralled from start to finish.
