Fun fast read. Characters are clever, smart, strong, the conversations are real and constructive. The obstacles they need to overcome make the story real and it is well paced. The black widow of Whitehall was a great addition to the main characters! I love that she was involved and helped Anna and Elliott. For the love of green apples, go read the book. You won't be disappointed.
Content 411: one sexually intimate scene (which added nothing to the story).
Thank you Dragonblade Publishing, Netgalley and author for providing an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A delightfully different story from the Lyon’s Den .Elliott is a Baron’s son, wishing to make his life count. Anna is an Earl’s daughter and in her evil cousin’s sight for the money her father left her. I adored how they met and seemed to find an immediate connection!. The mystery they solved was twisty and seeing Mrs. Dove-Lyon in the mix was very original. The climax was a tad exciting and the ending was adorable! I will never think of little green apples in any other way again! Enjoyed it immensely!

I received this story for free and these are my own views.

After her father dies, Anna realizes that he was blackmailing many people. When her evil cousin comes to take over, he brings a cruel man that is looking for the information her father held on him. Anna instead goes on the run with Elliot and is also helped by Mrs. Dove-Lyon to find justice and receive what she is due. I received an ARC from NetGalley and Dragonblade Publishing for my honest review.

Anna’s father the Earl dies and she discovers he has been blackmailing some members of the ton including Bessie Dove Lyons.
Her wastrel cousin arrives with a contingent of men to assume his new title and try to compromise Anna who has a large trust fund.

She gives him everything so he can get his needed papers then destroy the rest and Anna takes Bessie’s papers giving them to her.

Action packed romance with fun scenes and a perfect outcome.

The Lyon's Love Letters is the next book in The Lyon's Den Connected World.

Lady Anna Parbury is mourning her father but has learned a terrible secret about him. She is devastated to learn her father was a blackmailer of the ton's secrets. To make matters worse, the new heir has arrived with his drunken friends to wreak havoc on her. Anna's father left her a fortune to be released when she attains the age of twenty-five which is four long years away. Determined to escape and find a position which will hopefully keep her away from the new heir until she is able to take control of her fortune.

But Anna discovers there are several people who are looking to get their hands on her father's files for their own reasons. One is Mr. Elliott Ward, looking for the evidence held against someone he cares for. Next up is Mrs. Dove-Lyon, the famous Black Widow of Whitehall, who has her own reasons to find the love letter for someone important to her.

Anna will join forces with her two new acquaintances to save others from future blackmail attempts in order to obtain her fortune. But along the way she just might find love and her freedom.

This was a sweet addition to the series. It is a fast afternoon read. The plot includes Mrs. Dove-Lyons, who has a personal interest in the story line. She is very mysterious and deserves to be front and center which allows us to learn more about her.

Lady Anna Parbury is desperate to find a position so that she can escape from her cousin who wants to ruin her to gain access to her inheritance. She has learned upon her father’s death he was not the man she thought he was. He was actually getting money from people who he was blackmailing.

Mr. Elliot Ward wants to find the files that Anna’s father has on a love one of his. He is determine to get the information back before anyone else can use the information against his love one.

Anna catches Elliot going through her father’s desk and looking at the files her father had on people. They decide to team up to destroy the files but the threat does not stop and find themselves trying to solve the mystery as to who also wants the files.

I really liked Anna and Elliot’s story!! It was a lot of fun, so very sweet and absolutely delightful!! I liked how they both worked together to solve the trouble that they found themselves in. Both characters were very likable and I enjoyed reading how they found their happily ever after together!! I highly recommend this book!!

Lady Anna, on the death of her father, has plans to be a school mistress until she can access her inheritance. However her cousin and his friends have different plans and whilst she manages to escape, she realises she is being hunted. Only Elliott Ward seems to see her for the person she is, but a future together is unlikely for another four years…
A lively story in which Bessie Dove Lyon features in a meaningful way.

This book was fast-paced and the romance sweet.

I loved the story. It’s well written, entertaining and last but not least, Mrs. Dove-Lyon plays a major role in this story. Elliott and Anna are attracted to each other but danger is lurking as they stay one step ahead of it. Mrs. Dove-Lyon has a history for unique games of chance and this is one of the best because a villain is uncovered, Elliott gets his hearts desire and Anna gets her future with Elliott. They get their HEA but there is so much going on in this story, besides what is mentioned above, that it makes for great reading. I absolutely loved the story.
