HTML:Daisy Lansing's ability to transfer images from people's thoughts onto paper was a novelty she used to trot out to amuse her friends. But when her "entranced drawing" begins to cause serious trouble for her guardians, she is banished to the country and forced to marry a man twice her age. After the joyless wedding, Daisy is determined to bury forever the strange skill that upended her life. However, she soon finds herself a widow and in dire financial straits. Suddenly, her curse may be her one chance at true independence. Jackson Gallway's reputation as a rogue has far surpassed his success as a lawyer. In the wake of yet another scandal, he decides to head west. But before he can escape Misty Lake, Jax makes a promise to find an elusive killer. When he encounters a lovely young artist with an unusual talent that could help him in his search, what he finds is something neither of them can escape . . .

The Lady Who Drew Me In is a sweet yet steamy novel. I liked the characters and the setting. The book is well-written and, for the most part, kept my attention. The mystery was interesting and the author provided good clues. Ms. Rappold also did a very good job at capturing the time period of the late 1800s in New York as well as the personalities of society people. I give The Lady Who Drew Me In 3.5 out of 5 stars. I just wish there had been more of the paranormal element in the novel. The romance or attraction between Daisy and Jax dominated the story with the Jax’ case taking second place. The paranormal element was very much in the background (like an extra in a movie). There are highly stimulating scenes between Jax and Daisy after they are married (cold water would rise like steam if it was doused on them). In addition, the story has the usual miscommunication between the couple that leads to a distance between the couple. The ending is expected (there has to be a happy ending). If you like to read historical romance novels, then you will enjoy reading The Lady Who Drew In. ( )
