Customer Reviews
revenge, rumors and romance
For a year, Selina blamed the death of her husband Nile on James Barton, Viscount Blackwood. Apparently a wheel on the phaeton Nile was driving in a race had been tampered with, causing him to crash and die. James and Nile were known competitors, but despite her suspicions and the rumors that were spreading, James swore he had nothing to do with Nile’s death. Suspecting that Selina was the source of the rumors, and determined to clear his name, James proposed that they work together to discover what actually happened. A specific entry in Nile’s account book revealed a possible villain and his motive. Now they just had to prove it. As they worked together, it became more and more difficult to deny their mutual attraction, and a few attempts on their lives solidified their relationship. This story is cleverly written with its annonymous notes, gentle misdirects, raging anger, false accusations, steamy kisses and excellent use of parasol and fire poker.
