BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Desperate times call for daring measures as Honor Cabot, the eldest stepdaughter of the wealthy Earl of Beckington, awaits her family’s ruin. Upon the earl’s death she and her sisters stand to lose the luxury of their grand home – and their place on the pedestal of society – to their stepbrother and his social-climbing fiancée. Forced to act quickly, Honor makes a devil’s bargain with the only rogue in London who can seduce her stepbrother’s fiancée out of the Cabots’ lives for good.
An illegitimate son of a duke, George Easton was born of scandal and grows his fortune through dangerous risks. But now he and Honor are dabbling in a perilous dance of seduction that puts her reputation and his jaded heart on the line. And as unexpected desire threatens to change the rules of their secret game, the stakes may become too high even for a notorious gambler and a determined, free-spirited debutante to handle.
REVIEW:
Named after a virtue, as all the Cabot Sisters are, Honor’s name is apropo to her character. She honors those she loves but also herself. She is not afraid to go after what she wants no matter if it is right in the eyes of the ton.
It has been a while since I read a historical romance and I am glad I started back up with this one. It was a wonderful read filled with adventure and love. I enjoyed the character of Honor. She is so strong and independent but at the same time takes on so much responsibility to others. George in interesting too. While there is something about him he doesn’t really seem to be on the winning side of life but some how he is written in a way the reader wants him to succeed.
If you are a fan of historical romance then you will not want to miss the start of this new series.
