Pero el famoso e implacable Devlin O’Neill la secuestra y muy pronto, mientras permanece en su poder, Virginia verá frustrados sus planes por culpa de una pasión que podría cambiar para siempre el destino de ambos. "La escritura de Joyce es como la seda. Rica, evocadora y cargada de emociones". Literary Times " (…) Brenda Joyce sabe como mantener al espectador en vilo, incluso en las situaciones más inverosímiles, darle los giros necesarios a la historia para sorprender y despertar la incertidumbre, pasar una página pensando qué hará ahora, cómo resolverá este nuevo desatino, sirviéndose de malentendidos y de abuso de poder e indulgencia por parte de los protagonistas…" Rincón romántico " (…) es un libro de casi 600 páginas, pero me lo leí en dos días, así que os dais cuenta de cómo fue mi enganche(…) Para mí ha sido como leer una historia de las primeras que leía, donde hay mucha pasión, celos, venganza... y por supuesto arrepentimiento cuando al fin comprenden sus sentimientos."
