My Thoughts: I really enjoyed this novel. I love Mick and his family, especially his interactions with his sisters. I can't wait to read more about them. I loved this stolen moments with Lady Asyln and how they changed him. I liked learning about how he made his fortune and how he brought his family along with him. The twist at the end was one I did not see coming and it was good!

Cover Thoughts: Love that dress
