They were both enjoyable characters, with Kathleen’s tendency to stand up for what she thinks even in a time when that probably isn’t the best idea. I like both Kathleen and Devon well enough.
Let’s get the characters out of the way first. This is Lisa Kleypas! Below are my thoughts on how it went. Then a copy showed up randomly from Piatkus and I couldn’t wait to dive into the new story. Though her contemporaries are good, they don’t quite match the awesomeness of her historicals. She’s one of my favorites of the genre, but she’s been doing contemporary for the last few years. I am a big fan of Kleypas’s historical romances. I don’t think excited is quite a strong enough word to describe my feelings when I first heard about this book. As Kathleen finds herself yielding to his skillfully erotic seduction, only one question remains:Can she keep from surrendering her heart to the most dangerous man she’s ever known? But the fiery attraction between them is impossible to deny – and from the first moment Devon holds her in his arms, he vows to do whatever it takes to possess her. Kathleen knows better than to trust a ruthless scoundrel like Devon. along with Kathleen, Lady Trenear, a beautiful young widow whose sharp wit and determination are a match for Devon’s own. His estate is saddled with debt, and the late earl’s three innocent sisters are still occupying the house.
But his powerful new rank in society comes with unwanted responsibilities. Devon Ravenel, London’s most wickedly charming rake, has just inherited an earldom.
