Okay I wrote a REALLY LONG REVIEW AND ACCIDENTALLY DELETED IT. Basically:
- The more I think about this book the more I liked it - I appreciate the length of time it takes Amelia to reveal her personality and trust Cam enough to rely on him.
- Cam has everything a Kleypas hero should! I love how determined he is to care for Amelia and help her family.
- Not clear to me how much research Kleypas actually did into Romany culture at this time and I will say Merripen's role in the Hathaway family makes me feel WEIRD.
The haunting was so unexpected and genuinely moving?? - The sex was PERFECT.
- I look forward to the rest of the series but be warned this book deals with some dark themes!

Not a huge fan of the hero and his ‘possessiveness’ and some of the other characters sort of lacked charm so just came off a bit annoying.
It was interesting to read a non-traditional Roma hero though and I do like Amelia and her endless suffering as the eldest daughter.
