There is nothing in the world Kit wants more than to be able to marry Miranda, something that is impossible until a blood test changes everything. Whose blood? What is in the blood? Why will it make a difference in Miranda’s standing on the planet?
I love Toni Sweeney’s books and when I received this book today, the day I read it and reviewed it, I couldn’t be happier. I had no doubt when I received the book that I would love it just as I have loved all her other books. The book is full of surprises and secrets, and it keeps your interest throughout. The Andrus family is filled with amazing characters from the sisters and brothers to all the children. Characters you can’t help loving, I know I did.
