So she was convinced her luck was changing when Nicholas appeared in London, a place her had never come before. Unfortunately, she didn't know Nicholas wasn't there to confess his feelings and sweep her off her feet. Instead, he'd promised to protect her.
Nicholas Kincaid, the new Marquess of Winterbourne felt he couldn't say no to Gabriel when he asked him to come to London and watch over Rosalind while Gabriel was away on his wedding trip. He'd always kept his feelings about Rosalind a secret, but he didn't know exactly how hard it was going to be to fight those feelings when he was constantly thrown together with the object of his affections.
These two characters were a clear cut case of people needing to open their mouths and just laying it all out there. They constantly danced around each their feelings and attraction to each other. Even while stealing kisses and other "things" they still continued to hide their feelings. At some point, if these two were truly as in love with each other as professed later, wouldn't you be able to see and/or feel what the other person felt? I wanted to shake someone...I just wasn't sure if it was Rosaline, Nicholas or myself.
The one character I did enjoy, Tristan, has a smaller secondary role. But I wanted to know what happened with him. What was the story behind his engagement? If he was celebrating the broken engagement, why did he no longer want to be engaged? Why wasn't he upset with Nicholas and Rosalind? Will he get a book of his own?
These are the burning questions I have after reading this one. Not about the main characters, but of Rosalind's younger brother. Go figure.
