Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

From USA Today bestselling author Mimi Matthews comes a swashbuckling tale of Regency era romance and revenge. She couldn’t forget… Wealthy squire’s daughter Margaret Honeywell was always meant to marry her neighbor, Frederick Burton-Smythe, but it’s bastard-born Nicholas Seaton who has her heart. Raised alongside her on her father’s estate, Nicholas is the rumored son of notorious highwayman Gentleman Jim. When Fred frames him for theft, Nicholas escapes into the night, vowing to find his legendary sire. But Nicholas never returns. A decade later, he’s long been presumed dead. He wouldn’t forgive… After years spent on the continent, John Beresford, Viscount St. Clare has finally come home to England. Tall, blond, and dangerous, he’s on a mission to restore his family’s honor. If he can mete out a bit of revenge along the way, so much the better. But he hasn’t reckoned for Maggie Honeywell. She’s bold and beautiful—and entirely convinced he’s someone else. As danger closes in, St. Clare is torn between love and vengeance. Will he sacrifice one to gain the other? Or with a little luck—and a lot of daring—will he find a way to have them both?

    Was this book perfect? No. But I’m very limited by this 5 star system. And this book hit a lot of my wants in a book right now: Low angst, childhood friends, class differences. Also, I believe I’ve said this before but Mimi Matthews is one of the only “clean” romance writers I’ve read that isn’t trying to push Christian ideals on the reader.
