I started this book expecting to not like it. The main characters were both playing way to many roles. I spent quite a bit of the book wanting the charade to end. I ended up liking both Dalton and Clara, although I could have done without them both playing several roles. Clara played a maid nam...
I only read the book after this one in the series and definitely enjoyed it more than The Spy. While this is about the relationship of Dalton and Clara, the story focussed on the intrigue that involves both characters. There is plenty if twists and turns as well as a lot of humor.

Not quite as entertaining as the first one, pretty good, nonetheless. There were a few points - the cat goes from being skinny to having two kittens in a couple of weeks. I scratched my head about that one. And the H/h crammed into a sideboard and making out. How did they have enough room to do ...

Really more like 3.5. Definitely can't go 4 stars on this one. I really enjoyed the first in the series.I don't know what it was but the whole time reading this I just couldn't get what was going on. I found myself saying "huh?"" and ""wait..""One scene in particular finds the H/h at an inn and t...
