Good book to read!

It has been five years since a brutal Indian raid claimed Brighid Cassidy's family. But with the resilience and generosity of a young girl, Brighid has grown accustomed to the beautifully simple life of the tribe that took her hostage, then loved her as one of their own. Now a peace treaty is forcing tier to return to civilization, and a society that she is sure will never accept tier. She wants to despise dashing, blond Philip Crown, the distinguished English peer who escorts her back to Pennsylvania, yet even this desire is undermined by his warn smile and gentle manner.... When the Young Earl Philip Crown promised to fulfill a family obligation by showing the long-lost captive home, the last thing he expected was to fall in love with her penetrating aquamarine eyes. As wild as the Indians she's lived with, and as stubborn as tier Irish ancestors, Brighid remains as irresistible to him as she is unfathomable. But there is one thing Philip knows for certain: he must convince the spirited Brighid that happiness can be found beyond the wild life she has known...in the arms of an English nobleman.

Despite what anyone else may think...

...I loved this book. I purchased the book (along with the prequel and sequel and about three others of hers) when I was actually looking for another of Michaels's books (the incomparable tale of The Most Honorable Banning Talbot, Marquess of Daventry, and Prudence "Angel" MacAfee from "Passion of an Angel", which I did find and purchase as well, bringing the total to seven). Reading the books sequentially (Homecoming, Untamed, Promise), I found the tale to be very involving. After having read thirty of Michaels's books, I think I can say with some authority that this is one of probably, in my humble observation, one of her top five books.
