As always, with Ms. Goodman's books, this is a great story. Poor cousin Emma is sent on an errand in place of her spoiled cousin Marisol to break off the relationship with her current lover. Instead, Emma is kidnapped and beaten. Restell Gardner investigates, but Emma can't remember much of her ordeal.
There are a lot of twists and turns in this book that keep the plot interesting. Restell and Emma are a great couple, both adventurous but careful of each other. Definitely, another good read from Ms. Goodman. ( )

Emma was severely beaten while doing a favor for her cousin and asks Restell (a sort of "fixer" guy) for help figuring out what happened to her and protecting her cousin, who she thinks may have been the real target of the attack. Interesting portrayal of PTSD by a woman. As usual, Goodman's hero is smart, considerate and willing to let his very capable female participate equally and fully in her own recovery. Despite the cover, this is a British Regency setting. One of Goodman's best. ( )

This book was one of my 3 top picks for "Most Luscious Love Story" at AAR annual vote for 2007....also top 3 for "Best European Historical" 2007 ( )

The plot in this historical romance was pretty good with some dramatic aspects and an exciting ending somewhat surprising but the pace was a bit slow at times yet other developments seemed to jump ahead. Emma believes she may be in danger so she asks Restall to help her.

Lady Wombat says:

Despite its nothing-to-do-with-the-book title and anachronistic cover (aren't we in Regency London, not the old West??), Goodman's regency is an entertaining read. The first third was a bit off-putting, because the story unfolds in primarily in dialogue, with little exposition and even less character interiority. But the wryly witty exchanges between the two protagonists kept me going, and once the two married (fairly early on for a romance novel), the narration became more balanced between dialogue/interior musings/exposition.
