Review
"In this final book of the trilogy, Lady Helen is preparing for her wedding and learning how to handle her blood bonding with Lord Carlston as they become the Grand Reclaimer. Torn between her two lives, Lady Helen knows that she must be ready for the dangerous battle with the Grand Deceiver...Charged with excitement, danger, more than one romance, secrets, and deceit, the plot moves inexorably to the final showdown...[and] to an extremely satisfying ending... a conclusion that continues the strong writing, well-developed characters and rich details of the Regency period of this series. VERDICT An excellent blend of historical romance, adventure, fantasy, and ghost story." -School Library Journal
"'Goodman's assured writing and masterful grasp of historical milieu create a world where doing one's hair can take hours--and is done even when the end of the world is at stake. The slow burn, punctuated by murder, forbidden declarations of love, and surprising plot twists provides readers... with exactly what they want...You'll never see the Regency the same way again. -Kirkus
