Reviews

[wyvernfriend]

somewhat unsatisfying The romance was good, eventually and the characters got to know each other well by the end but also by the end it finished as if the author was suddenly told that there should be another book in the series.
 
I missed reading book 1 (it's on the TBR shelf now) so there were bits and pieces that felt a little like I was missing things.  lare Cottam and the Marquess of Rawcliffe knew each other when they were children and now when they meet she's sufficiently annoyed with the world to punch him in the nose, all of this leads to marriage.  Rawcliffe fails to tell her that he's investigating her brother and there are a lot of different issues going on. 
 
Seriously he used kissing too much to shut her up, talking is important, yo.
