Great Read

As usual, Jane Feather turns out a book the great historical romance with a little spice.

liked it

I enjoy a book with a alpha male. This book kept my interest and was hard to put down. I thought the charactors even the secondary ones were drawn out well

An Entertaining Second Installment for Cavendish Square

I was looking forward to this second book of the Cavendish Square trilogy and I was not disappointed. The hero's hidden agenda made for an interesting plot development. Alex was revealed as a Russian spy early on, but the reader was kept in the dark as to who he was working for. Livia was a feisty, strong heroine. It was interesting to watch the h/h waltz around compromises when chauvinistic and cultural differences reared their respective heads. The tension was constant and made me worry how the story could have a HEA, but that was provided, too. I learned some Russian history and I always appreciate that!

Wow - A great Book!

I just finished this book and I really enjoyed the mixture of romance, spy's, Russian history and cultures mixing with English. This is the story of Prince Alex Prokov who is in England to move into his deceased mother's home (whom he never met) and do some spy for Russia. Livia Lacey is living his mother's home. Alex falls in love with her - which is killing two birds with one shot - he gets his mother's home and a English wife. The whole story builds with Alex's lies and Livia is no meek women. Great story - 490 pages of adventure! Enjoy

wonderful Regency romance

In 1807, although still feeling like a country mouse, Lady Livia Lacy enjoys the London social life now that her recently inherited house has been somewhat fixed and her best friend widow Nell Dagenheim has fallen in love (see A WICKED GENTLEMAN). Livia has one concern; she cannot understand why sophisticated hunk half-English, half-Russian Prince Alexander Prokov pursues her as there are so many prettier and obviously more urbane women than a rustic mouse like her. When he proposes, she has doubts, but in love with her handsome suitor plus encouraged by Nell's relationship with Bonham, she accepts. Unsure of herself, Livia begins to question who is Prince Alexander, why her, and who are all these Russian aristocrats hanging around him. She also begins to think her beloved is hiding something from her that she assumes is his real reason for being in London and perhaps courting her. When she finds incriminating old letters that answer much of what she pondered, Livia is heartbroken and prepares to rusticate in loneliness. Alex is caught between his country and his beloved wife. The second Cavendish Square Regency romance is a wonderful tale starring two likable protagonists caught between their love and international intrigue. The story line is fast-paced from the moment the pair meets and never slows down as passion battles with duty and loyalty to one's love wars with to one's nation. Jane Feather is at the top of her game with this superb historical. Harriet Klausner
