A really lovely novel! Beautiful story and well developed.
Just one note: Ambrose (the male protagonist) is stubborn as a mule, sometimes too much!
I adored Philippa, she's enormously determined, I don't know if I would have been able to bear all Ambrose's second thoughts about their relationship...but I must say, his behaviour is partly comprehensible considered his tragic past, his regrets and his guilts.
The Viscount Ambrose Servin is a declared scoundrel, he is famous among the ton for having ruined his brother's fiancée and then refusing to marry her, but that isn't the only gossip about his mysterious life. He's a former exceptional fighter and his wicked imagine has been increased by his frequent appearances at the licentious parties hosted by Lord Lockwood.
It's during one of these “peculiar
soirees” that he sees the beautiful Lady Philippa Latham and it's
immediately obvious that she hasn't the faintest idea of which kind
of party it is, she's no doubt like a fish out of water.
Servin, impulsively decides that he has
to help her and protect her identity.
