I am a huge fan of Patricia Veryan, and The Riddle of the Lost Lover is consistent with her great work of the past. She has written better, but this book was enjoyable nonetheless. The plot was exciting, the romance was sweet, and I couldn't put the book down until the end. I love Toby and Paige! They are typical examples of Ms. Veryan's sparkling humor and wit. I hope they get their own books eventually. All in all, I really enjoyed this book.
