Just as Lady Philippa Ware decided to set aside the scandal that delayed her debut season, a scathing social snub renewed her disgrace. In the years since, Philippa has found her inner strength and is now ready to face the ton. Her resolve is immediately tested, however, when one of the first men she meets is Lucas Arden, the Marquess of Roath, the very one who insulted her all those years ago. Luc is also newly on the marriage mart, there by the ducal decree of his grandfather to find a wife and produce an heir. Though Luc and Philippa feel an instant attraction, they’ll have to overcome the incidents that inspired their enmity so long ago. Balogh crafts a compelling, character-driven historical romance. This second installment of the “Ravenswood” series (following Remember Love) is spared the weighty exposition of the first but remains intricate and engaging. The romance is more emotional than physical, with scant sex scenes overshadowed by a tenderness that tugs at the heartstrings.
VERDICT This book will appeal to readers seeking a moving Regency romance with a complex cast of characters. Recommended for fans of Lisa Kleypas and Stephanie Laurens.
