Publisher Description
Laurence Rutherford, the Marquess of Westcott has always enjoyed music as his mistress, hoping for his life to be quiet, ordered and filled with the rhythmic sounds, but growing up with the Blackenhawke brothers has not always allowed that to be the case. So when his close friend Nicholas Blackenhawke asks him to take his wife's sister, an escaped slave from America into hiding at his quiet manor house in the country, he jumps at the chance to spend time with the black blue-eyed beauty, entertaining her in the peace of his music.
A simple request until he finds he is spending more time keeping his emotions in check, instead of watching the approaching danger that not only has the power to shatter their peace, but to kill them all.

Disappointed
Having read all the books from this collection prior to this. It took me days to read what I’d normally finish in hours. This was flat, it dragged, was repetitive in some places and unbelievable in others, a lot of do good, even the arrival of her dad in England was glossed over, proofing errors and felt very robotic. Not one of the best from the author it felt that since Carolina arrived with Juliette, a romance must be written in for her. Holding on to the drama expected with the arrival of her dad, I persevered. Then began skipping pages.
Dwelled too much on future inventions in 1800’s. One or two would’ve made sense, too much crammed in and disjointed. Romance and intrigue and danger thatJack’s story began was missing or flatlined in this one. Still a fan of the author but will take a break. Hopefully the Duje of Dunsworths tale will return to the drama and danger and romance I felt was missed here.
