Rating 3 1/2 StarsI'm not going to lie, but I wanted to read Cloaked in Danger for a few reasons: 1) The cover. I have time and time again, I do love a beautiful cover. Yes, I will be persuaded to read a book, because of a cover. 2) The title. I absolutely love the title (and possibly the font too).  3) The story idea. I do love a story with an unusual heroine. I do favor heroines with backbones, bluestocking tendency, or boarding social outcast. Aria does have a bluestocking streak, and is boarding social outcast. However, with a father who is in good standings with the ton helps her from being a social outcast.I did like Aria's devotion to search for her father and how she went about it. Yes, it was quite clever of her to go out into society and search for answers. However, I found her a bit nave, when it came to  searching for answers. She needed a lot of help navigating through the ton, but she was determine do this on her own. Commendable, but not the smartest thing to do. She ends up getting compromise by the Earl of Merewood, Adam.Poor Adam. I kind of feel bad for the guy, because he's trying to ensure his sister are safe and happy and trying to focus on getting them married off before he pursues a bride. Then he gets practically leg-shackled to Aria, because of her stubbornness. I like that he's trying to do the right thing for his family and Aria, but he just tends to fixate the tiny details. I think sometimes he just needs a chill pill.The story was okay. The beginning felt a little slow to me, but once Adam and Aria find themselves in a compromising situation the story starts to progress pretty fast. There search was starting to petered out, then bam something happens that causes tension in my stomach. My gut was in a knot for rest of the book. I started to wonder how the outcome would be.All-in-all, Cloaked in Danger a pretty good read. I liked the story well enough, but there were a few things I would have been fine without. I did like how the author didn't make a sugar coat happy ending where it magically became all better, because everything worked out. I liked that Aria went through a dark period and try to cope with all that had happen. However, I think I would have been more content had there been an epilogue with a little sugarcoating.Copy provided by author via Tasty Book Tour
