She Saves His Life...
For Chloe Wherlocke, it all begins with a vision - a glimpse into the future that foretells a terrible plot against Lord Julian Kenwood and his newborn son. Chloe's psychic gift allows her to save the child from certain death, but the earl remains in grave peril...

But When He Steals Her Heart...
Julian Kenwood knows someone is trying to kill him and he suspects his scheming wife and her lover are behind the plot. But Julian is shocked when Chloe, a captivating, dark-haired stranger, warns him that sinister forces are indeed at hand - and exposes a devastating secret that changes his life forever...

Will She Resist - or Surrender?
As Chloe reveals her plan to save Julian, neither can deny the attraction that grows each moment thy're together. Chloe knows the highborn earl could never love her as she loves him. But when danger strikes closer than ever, Chloe must risk everything - or lose Julian forever...


This was an interesting story. Sadly, my least favorite part was the romance. I didn't find the chemistry between the two main characters very compelling and neither one had much depth. Chloe and her family grabbed my attention and I enjoyed the paranormal elements involved in the story. Even though there isn't a lot of information about the family and their powers, I knew the story was going to focus on the romance and hoped the following books would expand on the paranormal abilities. Howell created a believable historical setting but at times the language was bit too modern. Overall, I was interested enough to carry on reading the series, but I wasn't wowed by anything in this book.
