What readers say about Midnight Marriage
An emotional journey worth taking with a no-nonsense heroine and a TDF hero… There was nothing disappointing about this book except that I wanted it to last forever… Plenty of subterfuge in this tale, with several subplots skillfully woven throughout… Just as I thought Lucinda’s books couldn’t get any better, this did… Engaging, authentic, and comfortably paced… Settings, outfits, and behavior of the characters are portrayed in delicious detail… Impressive; sequels aren’t generally as powerful as the first book, but Lucinda Brant proves the exception… Worth every penny… A marvelously gifted author… Now I can’t wait for the 3rd book of the series… Bravo Lucinda!
