“The perfect daughter…secrets within secrets, lies within secrets, lies within lies“Adopted daughter Eleanor Becket is dedicated to her family and its welfare. She is also a commendable commander, and a keeper of secrets, most especially her own. Who would ever expect this fragile beauty, with her quiet ways and her unfortunate limp, to be capable of anything more than her accomplishments at embroidery and her mastery of musical instruments?
“Only Jack Eastwood feels the need to look more deeply at this self-proclaimed spinster, and what he sees — and the long-ago crime he suspects — lead both Jack and Eleanor to the very edge of desire and danger. As the Beckets feel the outside world looking ever more closely at the nocturnal activities taking place in Romney Marsh, as the Black Ghost rides yet again, Eleanor Becket is forced to risk her family, her chance at love, even her life, in one desperate gamble.”
Again, this book took me much longer to read than it should have… I will, however, say that this book was the one that made an amazing amount of sense to me. FINALLY, Michaels has decided to shed some light and help her readers out! It was wonderful to finally be able to tell what the heck I was reading! There was more character development—which I really appreciated—and it was better-written. This book wasn’t perfect, but it was easier and more pleasant to read by leaps and bounds.
Again, I think I’m going to take a break from Kasey Michaels and read another book before reading the next in the series: A Most Unsuitable Groom.
