Review # 1 was written on 2021-10-07 00:00:00 Timothy Addison The blurb on this page is pretty spot on about the first part of the book and that was the best part. Lady Brad is an intelligent and strong character and I liked how, even though she was falling in love with Lord Nicholas, she still kept her self-worth. The author did a good job redeeming Nick, even though she had to use the trope of the sad boy rebelling against his father. There were several excuses for his disreputable behavior, including I wasn't really trying to seduce an innocent, I was just showing my young prot�g� how HE could do it (well, that makes it okay, then). However, it was his behavior afterwards and his treatment of Brad that won me over. Unfortunately, the second half of the book is a mystery that's so obvious you're just waiting for the protagonists to catch up. It also had this unbelievable plot where the H, who loved his brother and kept in touch with him, didn't know some very important things about the brother's family. To top it off, the way the mustache twirling bad guy goes about threatening the h's life at the end was laughable as to how easily the H could have overpowered him. The three stars is for the first part of the book, which was a bit above average, possibly even close to 4 stars, but was bogged down by the second part.

Knowing that her father was a traitor, he was determined that no offspring of the Comte de Verette would ever marry into the Moreton family--no matter what steps he had to take to prevent it. But surely there had to be a better way to foil Diane's part in the attempted rescue of Napoleon from St. Helena--and save his brother from her clutches--than by marrying her himself!
