BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Lady Jessica “Jessie” Carville gave up on up men six years ago, after being deserted by Lord Hugo Duran, the man she loved beyond all reason. She has carried on with her life and . . . shockingly . . . with her career. Although most of Society frowns upon a woman in business, Lady Jessica is a natural at collecting and selling antiques. She’s put the past behind her until one night at an auction, when Duran shows up. He’s back in England, and he has plans that involve her. Can she resist what he has in mind?
Duran, though willful and mysterious, is a gentleman—when it suits him. Yet he left his lover without so much a note saying why. Now he’s on a mission filled with danger. If he doesn’t succeed, he will die. Can he convince Jessica to help him without endangering her as well?
REVIEW:
I had a hard time connecting with the characters in this book. Actually I had a hard time connecting to the book in general. I just couldn’t seem to enjoy it. Don’t get me wrong… The writing is fine and the story has potential but I guess it is just not the kind of book that I enjoy. The treasure part was interesting.
Maybe it was just the fact that the characters while charismatic apart just did not seem to connect to each other so it was hard to be interested in their relationship.
Honestly if you enjoy historical romantic suspense (I guess that is the best way to describe it) then this might be the book for you but it just wasn’t for me.
