My favorite part was when he woke up in the morning and the chicks were on his ear and foot.

This is not quite an erotic romance but more of a romance mixed with mystery. It has a good story line that diverts a couple times but does conclude all at the end.

4 stars for a solid addition to this excellent historical mystery series. It is set in London, January, 1814. Alexi Sauvage has introduced Hero Devlin to a 8 months pregnant wife of a recently impressed cooper. Her husband was snatched of the street by a Royal Navy press gang. She is desperate need of food and coal. Hero and her friend Alexi assist her in the successful birth of her child. They are returning to Hero's carriage when they stumble upon the body of a woman. Hero recognizes her as Jane Ambrose, piano teacher to Princess Charlotte, the Regent's daughter. She sends word to her husband, Sebastian St Cyr, Viscount Devlin. Sauvage has told Hero that the body was moved after death, due to the lack of blood from the wound. Devlin decides to investigate what was either a murder or manslaughter. However, the Palace does not want this classed as a murder, because it would embarrass the Royal family. The authorities announce that she died as a result of a fall, hitting her head. Devlin angers some powerful people by investigating and is attacked. He does solve the murder. There are many suspects with twists and turns in the plot. I was not sure of who the killer was until near the end. I like that the author incorporates the use of terms in use in 1814 London: Footpad=robber cutpurse=thief Description of Hero's clothes: "Unable to use her carriage in the snow-filled streets and scorning sedan chairs, she pulled on demi-broquins of fine morocco lined with fur, wrapped herself in a fur trimmed pelisse with a matching Swedish hat fastened up on one side, and walked." The author discusses the plight of the poor, compared with the rich and the inequities of limited suffrage, and limitations placed upon talented women in Regency Britain. I recommend that you read this series in order, as there are developments in Devlin's personal life throughout the series. See my review of book 1 What Angels Fear: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... I read this library book in 3 days.

This was a really good book. Fast pace, left you wanting more! Main character development was well thought out. Story line had enough twists to keep you reading Definitely recommend it.

Probably my favorite so far in the series. A touching story of a widowed father trying his best with his daughter while on a major league baseball team. Children make the story closer to home. Sweet, feel good story in a five book series. On to the next one.

Well drawn characters & great story

While this book at times was depressing and a little bit sad it sure did make you think about life’s Choices and consequences.

This is the first book in a mystery / romance series. It is a sweet little story that pulls at the heartstrings. The mystery part unravels a bit fast but isn't completely obvious throughout the story. An easy but very good read.

A short, fun book with the Paw Patrol about the Pups and a trip to the city in a hot air balloon. Phonics book that focuses on short i words (big, city, rip, will, etc)

This story has a lot of heart - not just in the romance part but in other friendships too. It is a feel good book for sure. It was so what easy to predict but the writing style made it worth continuing.
