I love McNaught's books. THis was one of the few I hadn't read yet...and I got swept up in it and read it in a day. :)

It’s safe to say this is where my love for the kidnapping trope began. Re-reading this book decades later only confirms it!

Royce Westmoreland—what a man!

Three books in, and I still can’t get over how Judith McNaught’s male leads embody such intense longing for their women. These men love so deeply, it’s almost as if they’re saying, "You want my soul too? Take it."

I haven’t come across books with that kind of feeling in a long time!

Continues binge-reading said author’s books....

I'm sorry, I read about 25% or more I don't really remember anymore but I could not continue this. I just don't understand why the book has such a high rating.
