Kleypas Does It Again!

Ever since I read "Dreaming of You", Ms. Kleypas has enriched the Victorian Age romance with stories that display heat and passion. I often buy my books from used books stores so trust me when the cashier said that this book was over seven dollars I hoped with all my might that it would be perfect. I was not disappointed.Ms. Kleypas once again blends a simple romance and complex plots twist into a story that one can read again and again. I had forgotten that Ms. Kleypas had plan a sequel for her Bow Street runners and now I hope that she supplies more stories about these real life historical figures.Don't miss out on this book it is a great all night read!I only have one other comment though, what happen to Sir Ross' fat cat that he kept in his office?

A Kleypas classic in the making!!

What can I say about this book? I was filled with anticipation over Sir Ross Cannon's story!! The most fascinating love stories are always about the elusive, mysterious man. Sir Ross Cannon appears to be cold and aloof on the surface, but underneath this man smolders!!Sophia is another bold Kleypas ingenue. She sets out to trap Sir Ross to avenge her brother's death, yet, as she learns what makes Sir Ross tick, she finds herself caught in a trap of her own making.This book is sensual and passionate. The chemistry between Ross and Sophia shows from page one. Also present is the usual "Kleypas twist" that always keeps the reader guessing.Overall, I give this book a 5. This book has everything that you could want in a romance. What I like most about Ms. Kleypas is her ability to weave a sensually rich story in the most simplistic way. I also like the fact that the characters spend more time exploring their attraction to each other than fighting it. Even though both characters have suffered in his or her own way, they don't dwell on it and are mature enough to love again. I read this book in one night because I couldn't put it down!! I even had to re-read a few passages because I was so intrigued. Ms. Kleypas is always willing to explore romance and sensuality in a way that very few romantic authors are willing to explore. I always come away wanting more after reading a LK novel. If you're already a Kleypas fan, you won't be disappointed. If you haven't read a Kleypas book before, you are in for a treat!!!I can't wait to read Nick Gentry's story!!

Another winner from Lisa Kleypas

I have been a follower of her books, and after 'Suddenly You' which I didn't particulary enjoy, I feel that Ms Kleypas has redeemed herself with this excellent book. I was anxiously waiting for Sir Cannon's own story and this book is definitely worth the wait. Tight storyline with a twist in it too and I devoured this book in a few hours. I enjoyed all her 'Bow Street' heroes and am looking forward to the next one and I especially like her 'non-noble' blood heroes. This book is up there with my all-time favourite Lisa Kleypas book 'Dreaming of You'. Highly recommended and a keeper.
