Enjoyed this one as much (if not maybe a little more) than the first in the series.Also, as with the first, I find the storyline/romance between Ben and Alicia to be much more compelling than the book's other romance storyline, which in this case is Angelina and Christopher. Not that I didn't enjoy ...
Emma Wildes is one of my favorite historical romance authors, and I absolutely adore what she's doing with this series. It's a wonderful blend of mystery and romance.From reading the synopsis, one would be led to believe that Elena and Ben are the romantic pairing in this book. That is so not the ca...
The Spy, His Wife, The Widow, Her lover...I am finding that I really, really like Emma Wildes' voice. She has taken a trope that I despise with the fury of 1,000 fists -- the spying Duke/Earl/Marquess -- and made it not only palatable but very interesting.Michael Hepburn, the new Marques of Longhav...
This is the second book in the Whisper of Scandals series and I find that I am really enjoying what the author is doing with this series. She isn't just creating a series that is loosely tied together by characters who are related or friends. Instead she is treating this like a true serial. This bo...
Very very nice story. It follows Wildes' pattern of two romances in one - in this case, both of the romances are really fine, although I found the abrupt cutting back-and-forth between the couples (like scene switches in a TV soap opera) a bit exasperating in some places. The mystery that Damien, th...
Closer to 3.5 stars.My interest in historical romances has waned to the point that I pretty much pass them by unless they are written by an handful of long-time favorite authors. But for some reason the blurb on this one caught my attention.The only other book by Emma Wildes that I have read is [b:L...
This is the second book in the Whisper's of Scandal series by Wildes. Once again, Benjamin Wallace, is called upon to solve the mystery of a scandal ridden widow who is rumored to have killed off two husbands. She now wants to marry again but would rather not lose Christopher because she loves him...
I had enjoyed the author's earlier works and decided to give this a try. It is well written, though a few chapters in you know easily where the story is headed.
I can't make my mind up if this is a 3 or a 4 star. At first I wasn't sure I would like the story following basically 2 couples instead of the usual 1. But that turned out not to be an issue and it flowed nicely between the 2. What bugged me a lot was the changing of the story of how Ran's parents d...
★★★★☆ Not bad, but not my favorite by this author. Loved the set-up and didn’t mind two love stories being told. Like the characters in both twosomes. It is not easy to make a married couple’s love life intriguing, but Ms. Wildes pulls it off. However, the why of it all is to be found in the re...
