Despite her attraction to him, she is dismayed to find herself betrothed to the man who is rumored to have killed his first wife.

Elizabeth meets a lord that she is drawn to while equally being repulsed by. Since his wife's death two years before, it has been rumored that the Earl murdered her! How could she consider her attraction to him if he was capable of such an act?!
Well written and worthy of your reading time!

4.0 out of 5 stars nice clean series
Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2021

This series feels like it is much better written than the previous series I read (sherton sisters series, a bit boring). My attention was caught and kept throughout most of the book.

My only real issue with it was the repetitive statement "I did my level best". Now I have no clue if this saying is even true to the period, however I don't feel like I've ever noticed it in a regency book before. And it would have been ok used once or maybe twice by the same character in the book. But it must have been used at least 4 times and by different characters, it just stuck out like a sore thumb. The first time I read it I noticed it and thought it was unique, but by the 3rd time I was thinking it just seemed out of place and annoying. An author should always be cautious of overusing unique phrases and attributing them to multiple characters.

Otherwise the story was well written and developed and kept me interested.

This second book in the series really is wonderful. A little quieter than the first, it is no less enjoyable. After meeting Elizabeth in the first book, it was nice getting to read her own story and watch her find her own adventure, and perhaps love along the way. After her dear friend finds adventure, she yearns for it herself, she just didn’t think it would come in the form of a misunderstanding and forced marriage to a man who may have killed his first wife. When more questions arrive, and threats start appearing, she must decide if she can trust her husband, or if she must find a way to keep herself safe from him? I love how the secrets unfold, the mysteries that are solved, the intrigue and suspense, and, of course, watching the interactions between Elizabeth and Justice, and all together it’s a wonderful book I recommend to Regency enthusiasts.

I didn't like this one as much as the first because I wasn't as engaged with the heroine. She seems kind of silly in the way she deals with the issue of her husbands first wife. Also the back story seemed more contrived.

A sweet love story. I really liked characters and plot. Moved a little slow. Note.....18th century ladies did not use the word Yuck! Nor did they use the phrase "all worked up". These are both distinctly 20th century American words.
Thanks for goid read.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Quest for the truth

Everyone knows Lord Justice Sinclair is guilty of murdering his wife, so why is he allowed entry into society? Lady Elizabeth Castleton determines not to have anything to do with him, but after being caught in a compromising situation, she finds herself betrothed to him. The truth must be discovered at any cost.

I especially enjoyed how true to life Elizabeth's character was. She wants to know the facts and not listen to gossip, but the gossip does have an impact on how she views her new husband. She is not totally alone, relying on her maid to help her in her quest for the truth.

This is was well written and acceptable to any age reader. I would recommend this to any fan of clean Regency stories.

We met Elizabeth in the prior book with her friend Rose who had been abducted. Mystery shrouds our heroine here, also. Did her husband kill his first wife or not? Will Elizabeth continually fear for her life? And just who wants her dead? Excellent story.

I have read other books by this author and the first book in this series ' The Duke Conspiracy' some years ago when it was first released. I am pleased that Lady Elizabeth (Rosamunde's friend from the first book) and Lord Heath have their own story. Elizabeth is a strong and confident young lady and Justice was made for her, although it took some time and various twists and turns for this to become apparent. Pansy Elizabeth's maid was a gem and there were some amusing moments involving her. I would thoroughly recommend this book and author.

The story is exciting from the very beginning and leaves the reader guessing as to what will happen next. It must be preceded by The Dukes Conspiracy to truly get a full grasp of the story.
