Purchase options and add-ons
Once the toast of the ton, Lady Angelina DeBrooke is no longer known just for her exquisite beauty, but more for her notorious marriages. Dubbed the Dark Angel, she has fallen in love for the first time and wishes to marry, but fears finding herself a widow for the third time. With two poisoned husbands and a cloud of suspicion hanging over her head, she turns to the only man in England who might help her…
Benjamin Wallace, Lord Heathton, isn’t interested in playing detective again, but when Lady DeBrooke approaches him in a quest to clear her name, he finds the challenge irresistible. Her second husband was an old friend, and when he takes a closer look, he catches the scent of a foe he has hunted before—and knows this is his chance to finally trap the elusive prey...

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.
Confusing too. The lady is notorious and then she has so many virtues and so beautiful it gets
unbelievable.
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.
