Ethan and Xenia smoked the pages from the very beginning.
Both are running from the past: Ethan emotionally & Xenia physically.
They are worlds apart but fit together well.
I liked the ghostly aspect and the mystery solving.
A wild love affair steaming up the pages.

A spinoff from the Blackwoods was always going to be amazing, but after reading it, I'm even more convinced and can't wait to read the full set. Ethan and Xenia's story has so many fantastic tropes, it's hard to know where to start. Hidden identities, class differences, recovering from mutual trauma, and a ghost??? Perfectly done, a fantastic couple, no notes.

Even better, you get more of the Blackwood family dynamics which was masterfully handled. Occasionally in romance series that are sequels to another book, the family will come across as just a little too perfect so that there is no question that the leads got their happily ever after, but if The Lady Who Came In From The Cold showed anything it was that Grace Callaway was intrigued by a flawed family that still loves each other and fights for each other. That remains true in the Blackwood Legacy, though I won't say the specifics because that would get into spoiler territory. Suffice to say, there's a lot going on between this family and I'm so excited that there will be four books to explore it all.

I can't wait to read what the other siblings get up to, especially James who you get a lot of hints about in this book but it's hard to say what his storyline will actually look like.
