Publisher Description
The one thing he cannot reveal to the one woman he most desires is his deepest need.
Jasper Renshaw, Viscount Vale, has a problem: he needs to marry and produce an heir to the title. All Jasper wants is to find a lady who will put up with him long enough to wed so he can retreat to his life of debauchery, a life that keeps the haunting memories of his past at bay. Knowing that Jasper is under pressure to wed, Melisande Fleming grasps her fate with both hands and volunteers to marry him. Although Jasper is initially interested only in producing an heir, he soon becomes entranced by his wife who is prim and proper by day, but wanton by night. Jasper vows to learn her secrets.
Melisande, however, is determined to keep her husband at a distance. She has loved and lost before and will do anything to keep him from learning her terrible weakness: she's secretly been in love with him for years. But to her chagrin, her husband pursues her, wooing her as if she were a paramour, not his wife. As Melisande and Jasper embark on a passionate game of cat and mouse, secrets from the past begin to resurface, threatening to tear them asunder.

"One of my two favorite Elizabeth Hoyts, what I love most about this book is how the hero and heroine fall in love. The heroine has loved him since she saw a moment of unguarded agony as he comforted a fellow soldier recovering from the trauma of war. He never expected any woman to truly love him, and accepts her courageous marriage proposal in a fit of whimsy. Her secret love and secret past are uncovered gradually as each opens up to the other in the course of their apparently convenient marriage. I can't tell you how much I love this hero. He is utterly unexpected, kind and whimsical, sardonic and wise, a fool from Shakespeare's court transposed to a romance novel and given new life."

" Really liked the characters in this one "
— Stamatia, 2/14/2014 -
" Maybe a 4.5. No epilogue - well, there was an epilogue, but it was about the fairytale. I so enjoyed this book, I couldn't put it down. I don't know what it is about books with "marriage first and then fall in love later" stories, but I love them. This was a really sweet book at times, very funny throughout and just pure romantic. I enjoyed it immensely. "
— Christine, 1/24/2014 -
" It was so amazing! Awesome storyline and characters, stayed up all night reading it! "
— Becky, 1/19/2014 -
" I enjoyed this a lot, I just didn't feel quite the same adoration I have for her "Princes" trilogy. I really liked the way his PTSD was dealt with, though, and the way Hoyt avoided villifying the Indians he was a POW with. I definitely plan to read the rest of the series. "
— Rose, 1/11/2014 -
" Jasper is one of my favorite heroes. Wonderful story, wonderful writer. "
— Tina, 11/25/2013 -

— Scorpio, 11/18/2013 -
" It was so so. Not very strong story, and odd language and love story! Some part is sweet, some are bizarre. Overall, I wasn't much to my preferences! "
— Nooshin, 10/3/2013 -
" I was not impressed with this book at all. Half the book was talking about how unattractive the main characters were. It wasn't worth reading. "
— Rebecca, 9/20/2013 -
" Hot...truly a hot story that brings our more than just a rake changing a wall flower. Way more than what I expected "
— Ashley, 7/2/2013 -
" I give this a 3.5 star! "
— Theresa, 2/25/2013 -

" My favorite of the Legend of the Four soldiers series. Vale and Melisande marry in haste and get to know each other at leisue. Interesting characters and decent plotting characterize this novel. "

" The book that got me started on this series. "
— Carrie, 10/27/2011 -

— Melissa, 3/14/2011 -
" It has been a while since I read this, but I do remember that it was a pretty good book. "
— Elaine, 2/5/2011 -
" Much better than I thought it was going to be. But then, I shouldn't be surprised because this entire series was better than I thought it'd be. Read it. It's a good series. "
— Christine, 2/1/2011 -
" A must read if you have read the first three in the series, but I liked it least of the bunch. "
— Barbara, 1/15/2011 -
" A satisfactory conclusion to the four book series. Although, I felt that the character development (especially Reynaud) was a bit uneven. <br/> "
— Laura, 1/8/2011 -
" Audio Version. <br/> <br/>Very good end to a very good series by Ms. Hoyt. audio for the whole series has been great. "
— Nicki, 11/13/2010 -
" Liked this book, but it did take me a bit to finish it. I thought the ending was a bit anti-climactic. But I suppose I don't read these books for their suspicion, intrigue and suspense. "
— Marianna, 9/8/2010 -
" I haven't read the others in this set. Was OK. "
— Lois, 8/17/2010
