review 1: This novella was a welcome distraction and served its purpose as a spot of before bed reading, but I was disappointed overall. I've read Cheryl Bolen's books before and usually the characters all appeal to me nicely. But I wasn't a fan of Sophia and I have to agree with other reviewers who think she seemed rather stuck up and shallow. William Birmingham served well as the hero, handsome and heroic, but there wasn't a lot of development for him- even for a short novella! Lord Finkel's suicide seemed very random and unnecessary, it was just a convenient way to get rid of him.This book is good for a quick read, but don't get your hopes too high!
review 2: Sophia ran away on her wedding night because her husband is an arrogant man who does not inspire anything but ... moreregret and repulsiveness with his kiss. William stopped at the same inn that Sophia is in because of a bad storm and to avoid her husband's henchmen that are looking for her she goes to William and acts as if she knows him. In a case of mistaken identity the two fall in love in less than two days. The truth comes out. I was very disappointed in the ending however, it felt like the author just got tired of it. Her husband's misdeeds are found out and he commits suicide by jumping off the second story banister in their home, you also never find out where William's smuggling goes and whatever happened with the mysterious Isadore. It was an okay read. less
