Cowan does a good job in establishing the time period and setting in this book. I thought the husband was too-patient-to-be-true, but it's still an enjoyable read.
the story was so-so, but lots of things I don't liked about this story: repetition of how the heroine felt about the hero and while the hero got unto his mind that the heroine was was still in-loved with here dead husband (I'm almost pulling my hear one at a time) -- blah blah blah --- it would nice to spared us readers of too much description of feelings and of course the lovemaking. SIghh, sighh, sighh ... it's annoying so I skipped most of the pages and read like speed reader --- shhhh don't have choice but to read the book up to the end to learn what happened about the truth of dead husband's involvement with white slavery ...
