hero with a growth arc, great heroine. Angsty emotionally, if you're invested, with a real jerk of a hero. By the end, it was nicely done wiht lovely acts for one another but somewhat undermined a cartoonish villainy. ( )
"The big problem is My Only Love is A Big Secret romance. If the author going to make that Big Secret the basis for the primary conflict between the hero and heroine it shouldn't be so transparent that the reader can decipher it on page one. Literally! "

A Time for Roses
A rose just might be taken for dead when covered with leaves and winter’s snow, But when it’s again a time for roses that rose will spring forth and grow
Hurt can be hidden so no one can see when covered with fear or with hate, but love can erase all that is hidden if you let it before it’s too late.
Don’t let the anger of your tortured soul blind you to what could be, a love that’s as fresh as a rain-drenched rose this love can happen between you and me.
I may not be the one you had chosen and you’re not the one I would claim, but sometimes life deals us a hand and we play it to stay in the game.
So what may now seem hidden or dead like the roses waiting for spring, if given the chance love can bloom too when it’s time for roses again.
—JOYCE JACKSON

This book is dedicated to the many readers who wrote me asking for Miles Warwick's story, and to my Arabian friend Perlagal, my horse, for making my wildest fantasies come true.
A very special thanks to my editor, Carrie Feron, and my publisher, Berkley Publishing Group— What a delight it has been working with you on this book!
And, as always, to the bookstores and distributors who continue to support me—my heartfelt appreciation.
