The plot of this historical romance was pretty good but I thought the action was slow going with characters thinking about the difference in social status over and over again. I skimmed a lot. Lady Celia asks bow street runner Jackson to investigate three men she is considering for a husband.

In his first scene, our hero describes the heroine's sister Miranda -- who was the heroine of a previous book in the series -- as having "all the lush charms of a dockside tart." (Stay classy, Jackson!) Whereas Celia, our current heroine, is tall and athletic like a "Greek goddess." I have rarely wa...

The solution to the mystery of the parents' murders was rushed, unsatisfactory, and it didn't really make sense, IMHO. Otherwise a decent story, except for the unbelievably annoying grandmother.

My review contains spoilers and they're mostly my thoughts as I went with the book...This book was much better than the previous one, To Wed a Wild Lord.

I really liked it. I loved the bickering between hero and heroine. There was doubt on both sides but I believe early on both were looking at a future together, something they were afraid to even admit to themselves. And what's more and what I said in my review of another "Hellion" book, I liked the ...

This is the final installment of the Hellions of Halstead series. I'm sad to see it end. I've enjoyed spending time with the Sharpe family. I have to say, I was much more bothered by Hettie's interference in this novel. I'm not sure if it's because we got more from her POV, or if her meddling went o...

I'm very sad that this is the last book in this series. It wraps everything up very nicely, but I'm going to miss them all. I have decided that 5 books is a good number for a series. I wonder if anyone will see that as a hint? Oh well.Poor Jackson, all this time, he's hated nobility because his mom ...

A cute ending to the Hellion series! I liked Celia and Pinter quite a bit more than I expected, and I always love a commoner for a hero. Pinter is a bow street runner, and Celia is far above him in station. He desired her from afar since he first saw her nearly a year ago, but when she enlists his s...
