This book is an historical romance and also a paranormal romance. As I don't like historicals (tend to romanticize the past too much for me) but I like paranormals (because I'm abby normal, myself), I decided to give it a whirl.
There's a decided bow to the style of Jane Austen here. The rich women are, almost to an end, heinous. And our heroine, Mary, is the epitome of all things a woman should be: honest, smart, funny, good, and, departing from Austen, budding with sexual desire.
The paranormal part - a ghost named Vincent who can possess others and hates the idea of any of his family marrying happily since he, himself, did not - is kinda frustrating for me. The ghost isn't evil, he isn't smart. He's not like the Canterville ghost, silly and pitiable. He's helpful in some ways, but mostly just frustrating.
But this historical held my interest to the end - a rare feat - and I enjoyed reading it.

I loved this book! The storyline was unique in a way that it really involved you with the characters feelings. Angie, placed an age old history to make you believe what you were reading was possible and could happen. This book deserved the award it received. Please try and read it, definitely a keeper.

This is the fourth of Angie Ray's books that I have read and each one gets better and better. Wonderful characters, witty dialogue and a story that I wished would go on and on
