4 of 5 stars
This is the first book I've
read by Ms. DeLaRosa and I enjoyed it. The author tackles some controversial
topics and does it pretty well. Finlay Swinton, Viscount Firthwell, is hiding a
terrible secret that could destroy his life. He is determined to bring attention
to social problems and decides to run for Parliament. When one night of passion
with an unknown woman shakes him to his core, he's determined to find her
again. A year later he runs across Mrs. Taylor, a widow, teaching in his
sister's Foundling Home, and the passion he knew that night is ignited once
again. Problem is Charlotte Taylor is a commoner and a Jew--certainly not bride
material for the future earl.
Charlotte has her own
problems dealing with vindictive former in-laws and meeting Finlay is a
distraction she can't afford to indulge in. When events spiral out of control,
Finlay may be the only man she can count on to save her life.
The pace of the book was a
little slow in the beginning, but by the middle of the book, the pace had
picked up. There were a couple of good twists in the book that kept me reading
to the end. Readers of historical romances will enjoy this book.
I voluntarily read this book
from the publisher and my opinions are my own.
