Arranged marriages don't happen in the modern world, so how did the irrepressible Daisy find herself in this fix? Alex Markov, as humorless as he is deadly handsome, has no intention of playing the loving bridegroom to a spoiled little featherhead with champagne tastes. He drags Daisy from her uptown life to a broken down traveling circus and sets out to tame her to his ways. But this man without a soul has met his match in a woman who's nothing but heart. Before long, passion will send them flying sky high without a safety net...risking it all in search of a love that will last forever.

 Rating:  - Maybe we should bring back arranged marriagesI'm a huge SEP fan. And this book did not disappoint. After getting a couple chapters in I thought...... "A Circus? Really?" I loved her books about football stars, hockey, and golf stars. Never would have guessed she would have written about circus life. But it was really interesting. SEP always creates such depth to her characters and you feel so deeply bonded with them even if you hate them ;-) Daisy and Alex will grip your heart. I thought this was a fabulous book ...

I believe there are romance novels and then there are LOVE STORIES that are so deep, so real and so emotional you feel the love as you are reading the book. This is a LOVE STORY told beautifully and emotionally. THERE IS SO MUCH DEPTH TO THIS BOOK, it is a keeper!!! I love SEP's books but this one is now at the top of my list. I hope you read it and enjoy ...

Her smart wit is evident throughout and she takes care to make her details, such as circus life and historical information, true, but it never gets in the way of her characters. You like them, laugh with them and want to shake them, but you believe in them and want to spend far longer in their company than ...

Rating: - A True Treasure!After reading the synopsis of this book I was curious as to how this story could be a good romance novel. But it did not take long for me to completely fall in love with these characters and to want a little baby elephant to follow me around. Having read more than my fair share of romance novels and most of Susan Elizabeth Phillips' novels I have to say that this was one of my favorites, you won't be able to put it down, nor will you want to. It is a creative new plot for a romance novel that will totally win ... Read More
