Another winner for Greenwood!

This was a reread for me - and if I can read a book twice it has to be good. I read somewhere that this book was introspective - and it really was. Both Sara and Gavin do spend a lot of time trying to figure out their feelings - which is a good thing. Sara begins being way to naive and she will really need a lot of maturity to deal with Gavin. He is a complex and thoroughly miserable person. He felt so betrayed by a cruel father,mainly the horrid way he had treated Gavin's beloved mother that Gavin had decided love could not be trusted and he would live his life free of emotional entanglements. He is forced into marrying Sara and he truly treats her abominably on their wedding nite and then he abrubtly leaves her and heads home to Scotland to bury his mother. At first Sara is distraught, but she has loved Gavin half her life and realizes their is a man to love - if only she can break through and find him. Their story is one of dealing, patience, and letting go and trusting one another. Just when it appears they have finally found happiness Gavin has a relaspe of trust and everything appears lost. This was quite an emotional story - Greenwood is excellent at bringing feelings of each to the book - and I truly enjoyed the story of Gavin and Sara!!
