An Heir of Deception was, in my opinion, the best book in The Elusive Lords series. Charlotte is all grown up, and the lengths she went to to ensure her family’s happiness despite her own unhappiness was amazing. There were a lot of interactions with characters from prior books as well, and that was great, I love it when I like characters in a book, and I meet them again.
The secret life Charlotte had led after leaving the love of her life behind was well done, and the culprit having written the letter she received just before her wedding caught me completely off guard! Alex was the last of the elusive lords to fall in love, and he probably also fell the hardest! He had a very hard time dealing with Charlotte leaving him more or less at the altar, and when she came back, he was far from happy. Even as his body showed him that it still wanted her every time they were in a room together, he tried to tell his heart to keep far, far away from her!
