“Was Lady Angelina Penrose some grasping Harpy?“Or the beautiful widow longing for love that others saw. The Earl of Penrose wanted to think the worst. But when he learned otherwise, Frederick doubted he could ever make amends for their unfortunate introduction. Until he spotted Angel at a ball that could ruin her reputation…and he felt honor bound to save her!
“Abused by her late husband, Angel had some to the risqué ball for a little harmless flirtation. And she found it with a mysterious stranger known only as Max. But even under the spell cast by Max’s gentle kisses, she sensed there was something disturbingly familiar about her masked lover….”
This is yet another of the books that I read a long time ago and am just getting around to reviewing. I remember certain parts of the plot stuck out at me as unique and interesting—like the fact that the author was brave enough to write about a husband abusing the heroine. I commend her for that—though it’s a terrible subject. However, I distinctly remember how it was a bit hard for me to finish the book. It took me a while to get through. Not to mention that the quotation marks throughout the book were not the proper ones that should be used in dialogue; read it and you’ll see what I mean. (I know that sounds like I’m being a jerk, but that’s just what my friends call the “Grammar Nazi” in me…)
