Summary: justareadernowafan
Comment: I had never read this author before. I have always been interested in Bow Street but hadn't read anything on it in years. The best parts of the book were those pertaining to Nick Gentry. Its always amazing to me how often supporting characters are far more interesting than the main characters. Its as if the authors never read their own work. How the "heroine" could be so spineless when her lover said he couldn't nor wouldn't save her brother from the gallows when it was he who was responsible in the first place for what her brother turned into. And then the way he treated her brother. They both made me sick. I hope the author writes her next book about Nick. That should be very interesting if the author doesn't blow it (skip the love story).

Summary: Better than 5 stars
Comment: Lady Sophia's Lover keeps one's fascinated interest from beginning to end. The plot is one of the most creative and unusual that Kleypas has written. The characterization is extremely well done while the very descriptive intimate love scenes superbly enhance the story instead of backsliding into straight [adult films] such as a few of our well-known authors persist in doing. The tension between the two main characters is kept at fever pitch throughout. The details of the story are not overwhelming, like going on for pages and pages, nor is the dialog boring but to the point. After reading more popular author's plotless pornos interspersed with many pages of "sparkling dirty repartee", Lisa's book is a very, very refreshing, can't put down read! It is a KEEPER!! It is really a 10 star but there isn't any such animal!!

Summary: A Beatiful, Romantic Story
Comment: This was such a great read. After reading some mixed reviews, I wasn't sure about this latest from Kleypas, but I wasn't disappointed. Lady Sophia's Lover is a beautiful story with lovable characters, and a wonderful romance.
After her brother dies in prison, Sophia is devastated. She is determined to get revenge on the magistrate who sent him to prison in the first place: Sir Ross Cannon. She gets a job as his assistant with the intention of ruining him. However, as she gets to know him, she discovers that Ross is a kind, caring person who has an inate sense of fairness that is conflicting with what she had thought. There is a growing attraction between the two along with a mutual respect. They both have their own demons to battle, and they need each other to conquer them.
I liked Sophia. She has had a difficult life and has every reason to want revenge but as she gets to know Ross, she sees that he is a compassionate, fair man with a deep sense of honor. She is not so bitter that she cannot see that he wouldn't wrongfully send someone to prison. She is able to question what she first believed to be true, and see that there could be a different side. And I just loved Ross. He is just a great guy. He is not an aristocrat but a self-made man who has worked very hard to get where he is, and he acts with honor and dignity in his job and life. He puts impossible standards on himself, and he needs Sophia to make him realize that he is just a man, and not superhuman.
Lisa Kleypas always writes a beautiful love story, and this one is no exception. I absolutely loved it.
