I'm reading through this author's work again and it's such a treat. Here the Earl is called in to help a widow because her two late husbands were killed by someone using poison. She was the main suspect but was cleared. She comes to the earl because she's in love again but doesn't want to marry her lover because she's afraid for his life. Ben gets involved and of course his wife has to help along the way but she's not annoying at all. I thoroughly enjoyed re-reading this book and wish that the author would write another in this series.
A very refreshing concept in romance novels where there are simultaneous characters who relationships are developed as the plot unfolds. A that plot is not the usual in Historical romances. It has a tang of a mystery which enhances the story and the people. It gave me the love story and the mystery, a perfect combination and a delightful change.
Best of all the villain is still at large so we know there is another book in the future. It is risky to keep two characters continuing in multiple books but Wildes does if beautifully. The flow of the book is smooth and there are no distractions by the author going back and forth between the couples.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. If you are looking for some fine writing and a different slant on romance this is the book for you. I can hardly wait for the next whisper of a scandal.
The married couple was a little boring and the only problem to conquer here (in their relationship) was that he wouldn't say I love you to her. The other couple had already fallen in love and because someone had killed off her two other husbands, she kept their relationship secret. This might have been a better romance if this couple had some misunderstandings or other blocks to their relationship. But there wasn't.
I think the author, in order to write something "different" stepped out of the genre all together. I hope the next book goes back to the old formula, because I won't buy it on blind faith. I'll research it a little before I spend 7.99 again.
Confusing too. The lady is notorious and then she has so many virtues and so beautiful it gets
unbelievable.
