review 1: "Fire at Midnight" had a very interesting beginning-a scene in Bedlam, with Rachel incarcerated.. The year is 1703 and a French Privateer is in England, the twin of a customs agent. They have been sepearted for years so there is much antagonism. Rachel has an uncle trying to kill her, Sebastien has a brother trying to kill him. Much intrigue, some of it confusing. But this is the 3rd historical in a row that had really interesting facts. There was a Great Storm on Nov 26-27, 1703 that killed many and destroyed much, including a supposedly invulnerable lighthouse and its builder.This was a free Kindle book, and my 1st by this author.
review 2: I was excited about this book and really enjoyed the first few chapters. At about ¼ the way through, it took a turn tha... moret made me stop reading. I have no desire to complete it now. The problem I had with it was the meaningless sex between the two protagonists. They go from being enemies and not knowing each other at all to shedding clothes without any chemistry. It would be bad enough in our own day, but in the time period it supposedly took place it is just unfathomable. less
