this was the first of julia byrne's books that l read and with no expectations really enjoyed it. the main characters dominated the story of a woman who has been virtually locked up as her father was ashamed of her blindness. her very good friend manages to get her away for the twelve days of christmas and also manages to get a very frosty bad tempered lord, who is a friend of her husband , to come as well. she cannot see how grim he looks all the time and something happens between them and it turns into a rather lovely love story. not mawkish at all. thoroughly enjoyed it.

A wonderful read!!

If you love good historical romance, you will love this book! This is a great book, Carola Dunn is very knowledgable about the fashions, social graces, and manners of the eara. The story is good, and the characters are warm and unique, they aren't the cookie-cutter characters typical of so many historical books. I have read many historical love stories, and this is one of the best I have found. Dunn has a strong writing style which I really enjoy. Her writting reminds me alot of Jane Austin (Sense and Sensibility, Emma), very enjoyable and good-quality. If you like Austin's writtings, you will like Dunn. I have just finished reading "My Lord Winter" for the second time, and it was even more enjoyable this time around. This is one of my favorite books!

Good story, unsatisfactory pacing.

This book started out enjoyable and its' characters were likable, but the story lost its attraction in the last few chapters.
Barebones plot:
Hero and heroine meet under awkward circumstances and the heroine gives conceals her true identity. But they obviously like each other. Late, they meet again in Town, and the heroine is too scared to reveal her true self.
I wish the denouement had occurred 2 or 3 chapters earlier, so that we'd be spared repeated example of Lady Jane hiding herself from Wintringham. The ruse went on for far too long. And then, in the end, the Earl got over the deception so easily that it made me want to throw my kindle against a wall. (I didn't).
Clearly, the hero's understanding of the heroine was completely false I wish the author had devoted at least two of the misspent chapters on re-establishing a new relationship for them.
Otherwise, the book was rather well-written.
