A wealthy and bitter exile, the most dangerous and desirable man in all of England, burns to possess a proud, headstrong beauty who is promised to another.
Winning Emma Stokehurst's exquisite hand through threats and determination does nothing to fill the empty spaces in Nikola's heart—until passion's magic carries the handsome, tormented prince back to a bygone era of splendor and romantic dreams. For there his destiny awaits him in a distant life. And in one remarkable woman's tender touch—achingly familiar but gloriously new—he must seek the elusive promise of ecstasy . . .and learn, at last, to love.

"I read this book in a day and it was lovely. I skipped over the time traveling section in the middle of the book and I was not sure what that added/didn't add to the story. so i just by passed it. The rest of the book is pretty good. I like Lisa's writing alot :) " — Heidi (4 out of 5 stars)

“Prince Nikolas Angelovsky is a wonderfully romantic, dark, and brooding hero complete with a haunted past…Kleypas’s style is clear and uncomplicated. If one can forgive the flashback, then the rest of the book is a treat.”
" I liked Emma and Nikki. "
" Luckily I know Lisa Kleypas is a much more capable author. This book has been my least favorite of hers. The wallflowers are still my favorite. The only time I have liked time travel has been with Outlander. If you are new to LK books, start somewhere else. "
" It started good but then it went through that whole flash back thing and that sort of felt a bit wrong in the relationship. "
" I enjoyed this book but if you are a new fan to Lisa Kleypas I would not start here. I think her best are Dreaming of You, Again the Magic, and the Wallflower and Hathaway series. "
" Another one of my favorite Lisa Kleypas novels. Will always make me cry, hope and smile. "
" I liked it up until the twist (read the book to find out what I'm talking about) "
" Probably the only Kleypas book I didn't particularly like. The characters were good - the plot was just weird. "
" Review to come...this was an AMAZING Historical Romance! "
" One of my favorite Kleypas books that everyone else seems to hate. Oh, well I loved it! "
" A fascinating story with an interesting twist. "
" I didn't really like Stokehurst #1 and this one was better. Not as good as many of her other novels though. "
" You won't like this book if you're not a spiritual type of person. Nikolas is a true bad boy and he got whatever he wanted. I love seeing love unfold between Nikolas and Emma. I truly enjoyed this book, but you have to have an open mind to appreciate it. "
" it was fun reading it. "
" I didn't really care for the weird twist in this book. I also wasn't especially fond of the main characters. Overall, I was pretty let down by this one... "
" Another book with a decent reader, but I couldn't help but wonder if some of this would have worked better for me had I been reading it myself instead of listening to an audiobook. "
" Over all a good read but I was not a big fan of Nicholas' "dream" part of the book and it's impact on the story. It seemed tacked on but still enjoyed the characters. "
" Oh, how I love a Lisa Kleypas book. "
" Love the author, hated this book. "
