BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN HISTORICAL ROMANCE TO STIR YOUR SOULA true fan of Gothic and historical romance, I couldn't wait to begin reading AMBERSLEY (LORDS OF LONDON) ... and I wasn't disappointed! Ms. Atwell, a truly gifted author, does a magnificent job in capturing the essence of romance in this stirring saga of Johnny/Johanna, the orphan waif who's the true heir of Ambersley, and Derek Vaughn, the Duke who eventually finds himself in love with a young girl he's always believed to be a servant boy. The intricate plot, well conceived and written with a graceful air that brings to life the rich, lush history of the glory that once was the English aristocracy, has us immediately rooting for the requisite heroine and hero, and hoping the villainess receives her just reward. AMBERSLEY is a beautifully written story that sings across the pages and immediately hooks the reader right from the start. Bravo, Ms. Atwell, for this first in what I hope will become a LORDS OF LONDON series!
