Lucie Brownlow and Seton Wallace have been happily married for five years with an adorable son named Sam. But Lucie has a secret she has been keeping from Seton, that she had been in prison for three years for a crime she didn't commit. Now her ex-boyfriend (who committed the crime) is out of prison and is blackmailing Lucie...

I really enjoyed this book. I particularly loved Seton, he was wonderful! He was so in love with Lucie, always thinking of her, looking out for her, caring for her (sigh)... The subplot with Lucie's sleazy ex added some suspense to the story. Lucie was an okay heroine, but she got on my nerves at times. She should have just told Seton what was going on instead of trying to deal with the blackmail/threats all on her own, especially when it started to affect her son and her marriage. Still, I really enjoyed this book, and I'm a sucker for a besotted hero.

Another great read by Sally Wentworth. ( )
