I had a good day today because I finished 2 great books, this being the first. I loved it and it kept me totally glued to my Kindle till the early hours. I had previously readCaptive Scoundrel (Knave of Hearts, Bk 2)and thoroughly enjoyed it and somehow I missed the first book in the series. I was surprised to see the negative reviews and found them mainly to be a little unfair but I guess we all have our own opinions. What I loved about this book is that the 2 main characters seemed to fall in love almost from the start but both are too stubborn/stupid to realise it. The main theme is that both don't ever want to get married, which is usually not a favourite theme of mine, however the author wrote such a great story that I could look past this.***Spoilers***The only reason I didn't give this a full 5 stars is because the H offered to make the h his mistress right at the end. It's the one plot device that I truly loathe as I find it detracts so heavily from a true love story.I still highly recommend this novel and I've already bought book 3.
