<p><em>"...this haunting story about loves lost and found is certainly worth the read. The ominous climax of the story, where we learn the origin of the feud between the two brothers and the truth that lies at the heart of Salvatore's relationship with Alexandria, was beautifully, heartbreakingly written." </em>~The Romance Reviews<br /><br /><span style="font-size:14px;"><em><font color="#ffffff">d</font></em></span></p>
