But when a mysterious beauty arrives at his door, the passions he's kept suppressed for years begin to awaken. TRUST A BEAUTY WITH A PAST . . . Running from past mistakes has taken legendary beauty Helen Fitzwilliam from the luxury of the ton to a crumbling Scottish castle . . . and a job as a housekeeper. Yet Helen is determined to start a new life and she won't let dust-or a beast of a man-scare her away. TO TAME HIS MOST SECRET DESIRES? Beneath Helen's beautiful facade, Alistair finds a courageous and sensual woman. A woman who doesn't back away from his surliness-or his scars. But just as he begins to believe in true love, Helen's secret past threatens to tear them apart.

I was going to give this book a better rating, but then the lemon scene happened. I probably should have stopped reading, because now I won't be able to see a lemon for a while without thinking of this scene. Gross. Yes, a quick google search will tell you that it was definitely possible for this to be a possible form of birth control from the 17th century. Don't care, it still gross. Food does not belong in my verjerg.
I like Alistair's gruffness, but I didn't really feel the chemistry between him and Helen. What I liked most about the story were the children, Abigail and Jamie, and the puppy, Puddles. Shut up, they did not name him Badger, his name will forever be Puddles.
