Reviewed by Helen
WOW Oh My God I think I have a new very favourite hero in Calbourne Rutherford Lord Ashendon, Ms Gracie has done it again written a story that is not put downable and just beautiful this one had me laughing, shedding a few tears and just sighing as Cal has his life turned upside down by four very gorgeous and headstrong females, my advice clear the decks and get yourself comfortable and settle in for a fabulous read.
Cal who has returned to England after fighting in the war on the trail of an assassin and finds out that he now has a lot of responsibilities so he decides that he needs a lot of help with his sisters and now a niece he has discovered. He is in Bath and is having a devil of a time with his sisters when he meets the girl’s teacher and determines after a couple of meetings that a wife of convenience should work and he can then get back to finding his assassin, but life doesn’t always turn out the way we plan and Cal is about to find out with his beautiful and very open bride.
Miss Emmaline Westwood is teaching young girls since she left home years before she has no family and does what is needed but she is very independent and says what she thinks, so when she meets Lord Ashendon and he offers her a position as companion that she refuses then the offer of marriage of convenience Emm concedes that this may be just what she needs but of course she will not be walked all over and their wedding night proves that life is going to change for Emm.
I loved this one from page one I was laughing so much throughout, Emm and Cal are just made for each other Emm’s personality works so well with Cal and his idea that these girls, his family will run smoothly and let him get back to what he thinks he should be doing, well maybe not. Seeing Cal come undone by Emm and the girls is marvellous, truly I am speechless and still smiling I cannot recommend this book enough don’t miss out on it whatever you do and woohoo it is the first in a series yay and really I think Cal has taken over from Gideon thank you so much MS Gracie a fabulous story that will stay with me for a long time to come so beautifully written sensual and amazing.
