I disliked the first two books in this series, but this one and the one before have been enjoyable. I wasn't sure I'd like the heroine, she had lots of walls up and it was kind of a rough start, but she really grew on me. And I like these two together. Nice. ( ) Tiene que ser rico, de alta cuna y desearla como a ninguna otra mujer. Estas son las condiciones que debe cumplir el hombre que Cassandra Belmont tome como amante. Porque la idea de prometerse y volver a casarse ha quedado descartada para esta joven viuda sobre quien circula un rumor que lentamente ha ido cerrándole las puertas de la sociedad: que ella causó la muerte de su difunto marido, Lord Paget. Cassandra lo ha perdido todo excepto un puñado de sirvientes leales y una belleza de la que piensa servirse para encontrar a ese hombre que la mantendrá a cambio de sus favores, pero que jamás podrá decidir sobre su vida. Two things that I really love about these books: 1) The characters are flawed with flawed, interesting backgrounds. 2) The way the author deals with violence against women, children, and animals. Balogh makes sure that everyone of importance condemns bullies and anyone who uses their fists before their brains, but she is also not afraid to have a character throw a punch if necessary. I also love this novel for the way the stories of the side characters play out. Most importantly, the heroine is amazing and OLDER than the hero for once. She's jaded and scarred but doing her best to take care of herself and those around her on her own. I guess I really don't have the right words for how much I admired her. And I also admired the hero for admitting to making mistakes and doing his best to make amends, take the higher road, and not give up. I think I actually may like this pair better than the last one, and I really liked them. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

HTML:BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Mary Balogh's The Secret Mistress. In a time unlike any other, a family you’ll never forget . . . Meet the Huxtables—three headstrong sisters and their dashing brother—each searching for love that’s always a shocking indiscretion away. . . . In her magnificent new novel, New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh sweeps us into a world of scandal and intrigue—glittering Regency England—and introduces the youngest Huxtable: Stephen, the only son. Here Stephen will risk his reputation and his heart as he enters a scandalous liaison with the infamous beauty intent on seduction. But when passion turns the tables on them both, who can say who has seduced whom? He must be wealthy, wellborn, and want her more than he wants any other woman. Those are the conditions that must be met by the man Cassandra Belmont chooses for her lover. Marriage is out of the question for the destitute widow who stands accused of murdering her husband and must now barter her beauty in order to survive. With seduction in mind, she sets her sights on Stephen Huxtable, the irresistibly attractive Earl of Merton and London’s most eligible bachelor. But Stephen’s first intriguing glimpse of the mysterious, alluring Lady Paget convinces him that he has found the ideal woman to share his bed. There is only one caveat. This relationship fueled by mutual pleasure must be on his terms. As the two warily circle each other in a sensual dance of attack and retreat, a single night of passion alters all the rules. Cassandra, whose reputation is already in tatters, is now in danger of losing the one thing she vowed never to give. And Stephen, who wants Cassandra more than he has ever wanted any woman, won’t rest until she has surrendered everything—not as his mistress—but as his lover and wife. . . .
