Description

Duty before desire…honor before truth.

Lady Abigail Lyon wants an education, not a husband. With her family’s social standing jeopardized by her sister’s scandalous elopement, Abbie no longer has the luxury of pursuing her aspirations ahead of the wellbeing of her parents and siblings. A respectable match would redeem her family’s besmirched reputation, although surely none of the ton’s eligible bachelors count curiosity as a desirable trait in a wife. Abbie finds herself confronting an offer that may be too good to be true.

Jack Bonnington is a rake turned spy, recruited by the Crown to ferret out a traitor. To provide a cover for his mission, he must pursue the very brilliant and beautiful Lady Abigail. The ruse takes a dangerous turn when they discover their secret is at risk of being exposed. Is the heightened passion a pretense or a prelude to something more dangerous?

***ARC was provided to me for a fair and honest review***

Overall rating: 5/5 a romance novel with an exciting plot that leads to no shortage of fights and kidnappings.

Heroine (Abbie): 5/5 Abbie is a smart girl from the countryside who is about to have her first season. She can see patterns where other do not.

Hero (Jack): 5/5 Jack has a protective streak for his family, for his love, and for his country. His friends turn him into a spy to ferret out a traitor in their midst.

Plot: 5/5 Abbie and Jack are sworn childhood enemies. Abbie finds Jack to be too set in his ways with poorly conceived notions about women’s education. Jack finds Abbie to be the exact opposite of what a girl in search of a husband should be due to her willingness to speak her mind.

Personal Review: The pair make eachother see new perspectives all the while trying to aid England in a fight against France. The story is paced well and has some truly tense moments.

Abbie Lyon is very smart and wants an education instead of a husband. Jack Bonnington has fought with her over the years about whether she should be educated or married. Napoleon is going to invade the country and the help of those who can contribute is needed. Abbie has a chance to help and so proud to do so. Jack has a chance to help also but he finds he does not want Abbe putting herself in danger. Can they do their part and find the love lurking there just waiting for them to realize?
