The third book in Tessa Dare's Spindle Cove series...
A temporary engagement, a lifetime in the making . . .
After years of fending for herself, Kate Taylor found friendship and acceptance in Spindle Cove—but she never stopped yearning for love. The very last place she'd look for it is in the arms of Corporal Thorne. The militia commander is as stone cold as he is brutally handsome. But when mysterious strangers come searching for Kate, Thorne steps forward as her fiancĂ©. He claims to have only Kate's safety in mind. So why is there smoldering passion in his kiss?
Long ago, Samuel Thorne devoted his life to guarding Kate's happiness. He wants what's best for her, and he knows it's not marriage to a man like him. To outlast their temporary engagement, he must keep his hands off her tempting body and lock her warm smiles out of his withered heart. It's the toughest battle of this hardened warrior's life . . . and the first he seems destined to lose.

A Lady by Midnight is such a wonderful story. Tessa Dare is so talented, so creative... the Spindle Cove stories are every bit as funny as they are poignant, and every bit as sexy as they are romantic!
I
may write a longer review one day, but trust me on this - just read the
series. If you're a fan of historical romance, if you love quirky but
compelling characters... just get the books and read the series. It's quickly become a
favorite, and I am looking forward to more!!
