![]() ![]() I’d forgotten how well the author develops multiple characters and storylines without it becoming weighted or convoluted. ![]() The spirited twin sisters, Cassandra and Pandora, provided lots of comic relief, especially around a pet piglet named Hamlet. ![]() His developing relationship with Kathleen was fun most of the time, charged with tension at others. Devon was perfectly “imperfect” and I liked that the transformation of his younger brother Weston (West) who came along was also a reflection of what was happening to him. It was like coming home and I knew from the first few pages this story would capture that same magic. My very first historical romance in the modern age was written by Kleypas and I was hoping this book would live up to that experience. Devon is ready to sell Eversby Priory, the ancestral family home the sisters have lived in their entire life, but he’s finding it difficult to say no to the irksome but captivating Kathleen. Even more incredible is that Kathleen and Theo had only been married three days. What also comes with that new title are Theo’s three unmarried sisters, his widow Kathleen and an estate burdened with debt and neglect. Devon Ravenel is enjoying the aimless life of the entitled aristocracy until he inherits an earldom after his cousin Theo dies from an accidental fall. ![]()
