I was surprised and found myself quietly enthralled by this very memorable and unusual romance. Overlooked fairy-tale story of a crippled girl and the young, worldly lawyer and politician who comes to love her. Interesting plot twists and thought-provoking literary and political subplots add depth to a delicately-written and woven spell of warmth and love. A little too unreal-people like Paul don't exist in the real world-but an entrancing and very satisfying read. Anyone who enjoys romantic fiction with a bent for Barbra Cartland with a much greater touch of reality and depth should enjoy this book.
Good, but not the best!

I am reading and enjoying this book. Very predictable though. I much preferred her book, "The Day Must Dawn"! I read it twice.
