This has to be my favorite book of all time. It has been read so many times that I am afraid the binding is going to fall to pieces!
The author has created incredible characters in an story that you will not be able to put down, short of a natural disaster. And even then you might cling to the book as the tidal wave whisks you away!
Prudence is an intelligent young woman, who lives with a ever-marrying aunt but spends most of the time reading in the library. When rescuing her kitten from a severe storm she meets an injured highway man whom she helps to safety.
From the very beginning the sparks fly between Prudence and her highwayman, although both know they will likely never see each other again. Prudence would never betray Sebastion and everything she does she truly feels is for the best for him.
You have to give this book a try and I know you won't regret it. It really is a classic and one that will be continued to be read till the pages fall to pieces.
