Publisher's Summary:

Two years after his last encounter with cynical nobleman Lord Murdo Balfour, David Lauriston accidentally meets him again in the heart of Edinburgh. King George IV is about to make his first visit to Edinburgh, and Murdo has been sent North by his politician father to represent his aristocratic family at the celebrations. David and Murdos last parting was painful - and on Murdos part, bitter - but Murdos feelings seem to have mellowed in the intervening years. So much so that he suggests to David that they enjoy each others company during Murdos stay in the capital. Despite his initial reservations, David cannot put Murdos proposal from his mind, and soon find himself at Murdos door - and in his arms.

But other figures from Davids past are converging on the city, and as the pomp and ceremony of the Kings visit unfolds around them, David is drawn into a chain of events that will threaten everything: his career, his well-being, and the fragile bond that, despite Davids best intentions, is growing between him and Murdo.

I adore this series, I adore it in audio even more

OMG, all the melty, gooey, yumminess. Okay, there's way more to this book, but I just adore how they are starting to admit to themselves how much they mean to each other.

I love all the details about life in this time, this is why I always say I'd go back in time if time travel was possible, although I'd likely be horrified by the difficulty of life then, I'd love the chance to experience it.

Plus I love the way she wove all the inequalities that people faced into the story without it being a sledgehammer (this is seldom done well in any story, historical or not). I enjoy all the ways it makes me think about how much things have changed, but also realize how much they haven't.

So much love for this book and series!

Audio: Some of the best audio ever. I have a weakness for Scottish accents anyway, so the fact that I can listen to some of my favorite books with a narrator that speaks with the correct accent makes this a total win for me. Plus Hamish McKinlay makes every character distinct, acts out the emotions so well, and is just everything I could want in a narrator. All the stars for his work.

Simply Marvelous!

Even better than the first book! The subtle opening of Davids fearful heart was truly touching. Murdos slow revelation. Elizabeths tragic circumstance. The beginnings of touristic Scotland created by Sir Walter Scott. Excellent reader. Looking forward to the next volume.

Fantastic series!

This is the second book in the trilogy, and it is even better than the first. David and Murdo are wonderful together - sensual, understanding, and loving. Keeping too many secrets might destroy their relationship, which causes angst for the reader (listener), but the overall story is so good, there is just no stopping.

Elizabeth's situation is heartbreaking, as is her father's. The glimpse of King George IV is humorous and enlightening. I am so invested in this series that I want to jump into the third and final book right away.
