4 1/2 STARS from Romantic Times BookClub
"Quinn pens a tantalizing love story that overflows with passion and emotion. Gia is an empowered heroine in an era when women were chattel, and she's able to meet her match in a dashing rogue. Quinn wins readers' hearts with a light touch, even as she invokes strong themes of slavery, freedom, and the need for independence.”

Review from Fresh Fiction~Margaret Ohmes
"Set in 1071 England, this medieval romance will touch the hearts of those partial to historicals of this period. The heroine has the perfect motivation to be wary of the hero, yet little by little her defenses are broken. The hero has all the characteristics necessary, including patience, to sweep the heroine off her feet and enjoy the chase. Attention to detail, story pacing and perfect rhythmic writing style make this a great second book for a new author who's undoubtedly destined for continued success."

Review from The Mystic Castic~Tom
"This is a wonderful story that reminds us if we can just trust enough to give ourselves fully, we get back so much more."

Review from Booklist~John Charles
"Quinn's second engaging historical romance features a sinfully sexy hero who meets his match in a strong-willed heroine and is an excellent choice for readers who like powerful, passion-rich medieval romances."

Review from Historical Romance Writers/Romance Designs~Marilyn
"Quinn has penned a gloriously sensual and lyrical rhapsody of a love story that is sure to win the hearts of readers. Dante is a splendid rogue who himself became enslaved by the very bold and sassy slave he brought home. Gia, though born a slave had a strong sense of self and presence and was the perfect match to give Dante a run for his money! This is a truly masterfully written and absorbing read, filled with intrigue, passion and fabulous imagery I highly recommend."
