I give this story 3.5 stars. It is a sweet love story. Isabel met Griffin while running from the torment of his brother when she was 8 and he was 15. He helped her and ever since that day She admired and held him in the highest regard. Now 10 years later they meet again, but he is not the hero she once thought he was or is he?Griffin is an orphaned boy who was taken in by a loving family who treated him better than his "brother" Dom. Dom was a boy, then a man, of little honor and his father knew it. Griffin was held in the highest regard and his father asked him to stay at Droghollow to make sure Dom did not destroy everything he worked so hard to build. In doing so he ended up becoming someone he no longer recognized. That is until he met Isabel again.Isabel was a young girl tormented and bullied by Dom. One day she ran from him into the woods and of course got lost and into danger. This young man, Griffin, became her hero and she had never forgotten him. She kept his necklace he had lost that day with her alway hoping to one day meet the hero she worshiped again and return it. She just never expected to meet him as her kidnapper.This story had plenty of backstory to make it flow. There was mystery, suspense and romance. The historical aspect was easy to follow. Isabel and Griffin were a couple you routed for and I enjoyed their love story. This is a story of Griff who saved Isabel from harm when she was young, and her hero was a young lanky boy. Griff was raised by the family at Droghallow and treated like their son. Having read all the midnight breed stories by Lara Adrian, her writing of historical romance as Tina St. John was like reading Johanna Lindsey books which I have read every one of them. You would not be disappointed in reading this book. Tina did a great job with these characters. I have had the great pleasure of meeting Lara Adrian and she is a wonderful person who takes the time to talk to her fans, as most authors do. Enjoy!
