*Book source ~ NetGalley Mary Smith’s asshat half-brother sells her (and her virginity) in a seamy pub, but lucky for her Alasdair Thornham is there to save her from a nauseating fate. But is the marquess any better than the rabble who would have bought her? Damsel in distress meet wounded hero. ...
Let's take every single romance novel cliché and toss them into one book, shall we? Dreadful. Just dreadful.
SOURCE: Netgalley Hero of My Heart is a funny, engaging and sexy read which kept me thoroughly entertained.In this story we are introduced to Alasdair Thornham,, (who is a Marquis who also happens to be an opium addict) who came to the rescue of Mary Smith who is the daughter of a vicar. Mary's ha...
Another NetGalley book. Alasdair, Lord Datchworth, finds himself in a pub where he witnesses a man, Matthias, put his sister Mary, a virgin, up for auction to the highest bidder. For a reason he does not know, Alasdair outbids all the other creepy men at the seedy pub. After winning the bid, Alasdai...
Hero of My Heart is a story about two people who come together and save each other.Historical romances are hit or miss for me. Hero of My Heart was an enjoyable read that fell a little flat in the middle and towards the end. Alasdair buys Mary who is being auctioned off by her brother. Alasdair isn'...
2.5 heartsThis book was another novella that skimped on the details. I'm not saying it was bad, it wasn't. The characters were interesting and the plot wasn't trite and overdone.

Mary Smith is tossed up on the auction block by her debt-ridden step brother and sold to the highest bidder, Alasdair Thornham who really has no idea why he bought her, only he felt the need to rescue her. Somehow through his opium induced haze, he recognizes that Mary needs to be taken care of and...

Alasdair is an opium addict, as a result of his war wounds and (apparently) an unscrupulous doctor in cahoots w...
I have mixed feelings about this one. There were things about it I really, really liked. But there were others that really bothered me. There was definite potential there; it just didn't quite hit the mark across the board.One of the things I liked best was the set-up... and the hero. (Yes, that's...
For this review and more my blogI really liked the idea of Hero of My Heart I thought the blurb sounded awesome but the reality was somewhat different. This book starts straight away with barely an introduction, the world building is non-existent and you are instantly thrown into a story that begin...
