"RULE #2: NEVER LET YOURSELF BE SEDUCED"He is a member of the Liar's Club, an elite group of renegade spies who work in service of the Crown. His missions are difficult, dangerous, and undercover, requiring him to study his subject very, very intimately. And he is accustomed to always having his way--whether it's in work or play...
"It isn't easy moving about society dressed like a dandy--especially when one is a ruthless spy. But that's precisely the latest mission for Liar's Club agent Dalton Montmorency. Dalton is posing as Sir Thorogood, the elusive cartoonist whose scathing political caricatures have all of London abuzz. The true identity of Sir Thorogood is a mystery, and Dalton hopes that impersonating him will flush out the real menace before his cartoons do further damage to the Crown. Now, if Dalton could only find a way to get the irksome, yet oddly appealing, widow Clara Simpson off his trail...
"When Clara meets Sir Thorogood as a ball, she's certain he is an impostor--because she's the true Sir Thorogood. Secretly penning the cartoons under the frothy nom de plume, Clara hopes to save enough money so that she can leave her in-laws and find a new residence. Now she's determined to reveal an impostor's identity--and that means doing some undercover work herself. But pretending to be someone you're not has a funny way of making a woman do things she wouldn't ordinarily dream of--even if it drives her straight into the arms of her devilishly handsome adversary!"
I finished this book this morning at 2:15 and I loved every moment of it! Celeste Bradley certainly maintained her amazing writing in this second book of the Liar's Club series. Dalton's character is first introduced in the first book of the series, but is brought into an entirely new light with this addition. You see that there really is more to the intriguingly dark and handsome Lord Etheridge than the ruthless spymaster that he is. Clara is also brought back from the first book and the readers can see how truly talented and brilliant the widow is.
The writing was amazing as always and the passion was well-written. I'm already several chapters into the third book in the series and cannot wait to update!
