My Review: I gave this book 5 stars, and will both read it again and recommend it to others. How will a servant adjust to life as a countess in the ton, and will she be able to make it through without the truth about her past being discovered or worse off getting her or someone she loves killed? This book had well developed characters, as well as suspense, twists, and romances. It fulfills all the needs and expectations of the reader, and I found myself unable to put it down and finished reading it in one day. I hope there will more stories to come with some of the other characters featured. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
Synopsis:Regal, poised, and elegant, Sophie, Countess of Monmouth, is everything that a highborn lady should be. But Sophie is hiding a past that is far from royal. When Patrick, Earl of Coulter, realizes that her story doesn’t add up, he resolves to find out the truth of what Sophie and her sister-in-law are concealing. Although Sophie has every reason to avoid him, the handsome and charismatic Patrick awakens something wicked deep within her soul . . . a powerful need that Sophie must stifle in order to protect her place in society.
Despite Sophie’s humble background, the raven-haired beauty has won Patrick’s heart. But what Sophie needs now is an ally. Viscount Myles Dumbly, the disgruntled former heir of Monmouth, is determined to expose Sophie as a fraud to recapture his lost inheritance. Soon Patrick is drawn into a fight for both their lives. Somehow he must find a way not only to rescue Sophie from poverty once and for all, but to keep her in his arms forever.
