Why read it?
1 author picked The Lady and the Highwayman as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The book is a wonderfully told historical romance. Is also has a unique twist in that in includes short stories written by some of the characters within the pages. I am nearly finished with the fourth book in the series and have number five on standby. I can't wait to see how it ends.
