A BRAND NEW spicy historical romance series, featuring a cast of deadly damsels! Wallflower at risk of ruin… Secret femme-fatale in training Millicent Whittenburg needs to escape her unpleasant betrothal. Taking matters into her own hands, she plans her eventual ruin! Then she can disappear from society to carry out the Queen’s deadly missions. Step 1: seduce the one man who despises marriage more than her! However, she hugely underestimates her target. Major General Beaufort Drake. Fearsome private investigator, he’s notoriously cold and visibly battle scarred. But Millie’s scandalously public kiss awakens a deeply suppressed desire in Drake. Instead of allowing them both to succumb to shame he does the unthinkable, and offers for her hand in a convenient marriage. Nothing prepares them for the fireworks when a fearless damsel collides with a dangerous Major General! And as their secret missions align they face their hardest test on the glittering battlefield – a week long wedding house party where there is nowhere to escape…only new and wicked lessons to be learnt!

    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    At the start of this book I honestly wasn’t feeling it. I thought the beginning was rushed and I didn’t see any redeeming traits the characters. By the end I enjoyed my read. It felt very fast pace and it was just fun. The romance wasn’t built up as much but I didn’t realize this was a sequel so I wonder if I am missing context. From just stumbling on to this ARC I did have fun reading.
