review 1: Kate Woodbridge needs to hide her past. her father was a pirate with whom she sailed around the world living an... unconventional life. But when her parents died, she fulfilled a deathbed promise to her parents to reunite with her grandfather, the stuffy man who threw her mother out. Now she's trying to be the paragon of virtue that London Society believes her to be but it's hard when her past keeps rearing its ugly head. one part of that past includes Marco Ghiradelli, Conte of Como. He's the cousin of one of Kate's Circle of Sin, women who get together to discuss science. He seems to be a wastrel scoundrel but in reality, he is in the perfect position to help this woman who is not cut from the normal cloth.
review 2: The character development is not sufficien... moret. In my opinion, Kate is not convincing with the direction she pretends her life should go. Marco is not intriguing. The cliche's are endless. What about the cultural differences? Is love so simple that any one man of such soothing charisma will continually put up with Kate's personality? And what about her past. It just seems fabricated to back into this plot which is for her two most conflicting loved ones to fight for her honor....boring. This book is more about sexually driven situations rather than actual gripping drama. Life is much more complicated. This stuff is cookie-cutter material. Potential plots give way to classic cliche's. Do yourself a favor and just re-read a classic, like Little Women. Now that's time well spent no matter how many times you read it. less
