Let me revise that: I liked the heroine but found the hero, the story and the writing objectionable. Dom knows the mistakes of the past may be unforgiveable-but now, entangled together in mystery and danger, will they rekindle a passionate longing that was never lost to begin with? But when Nancy goes missing, a panicked Jane calls on her former fiancé to track down her cousin. Now George is gone and the viscountcy restored to Dom, since his brother’s widow, Nancy-Jane’s cousin and closest confidant-never bore an heir. Brokenhearted, and attempting to end their engagement without destroying Jane’s reputation, Dom staged a betrayal of his own to convince her that he’s not the husband-to-be that she thought. Then a shattering betrayal by his vindictive brother George snatched away Dom’s inheritance and his hopes of offering Jane a secure future. The heir presumptive to the Viscount Rathmoor, Dominick Manton once had his heart’s desire within reach-a bright future as a barrister and engagement to Jane Vernon, a wealthy baron’s daughter. ![]()
