Summary: You can¿t go wrong with Jeffries
Comment: What a wonderful ride to read the adventures of Lady Helena, the lame member of the set of sisters that Sabrina Jeffries' latest trilogy chronicles. The plot rises and takes off from page one, only pausing to linger over the intriguing ruffian-turned-gentleman, Daniel Brennan. Their mission is dire and just as important as the romance.
The characters spark fire between each other and there are layers to them that get peeled away as the book progresses. Unlike the other SJ books I've read, the heroines of this trilogy don't have a real profession, but they never settle for sitting around and drinking tea. The setting seems very real, especially the bed bugs! Though two other characters intrude on the book (they only get a few pages, so it's not much of an intrusion), the prose otherwise fascinated me and kept me anxiously turning pages until the end. I can hardly wait for the final volume in the series! ("A Groovy Kind of Love?" :^D ) (Oh, WHY must they title these books so like each other?)

Summary: A lovely story
Comment: Unlike several other authors I have read, Jeffries is able to take secondary characters from a previous book and expand them realistically. Jeffries brought Helena and Daniel to life and did not change their behaviors or feelings simply because they were now main characters. The adventure and humor was wonderful, and the way Helena and Daniel interacted was great. The two were both useful in getting out of difficult situations in taverns and on the road. (Helena with her cane and Daniel with his glares). And they certainly did manage to get into quite a few scrapes! It was nice not to have a book filled with stupid misunderstandings, but rather with adventure and fun. It would be helpful to have read A Dangerous Love before this book. I can't wait for Jeffries' next book with Juliet!

Summary: Even better than the first!
Comment: I really liked the first book in this series, but as I got farther into it I found I was very interested in the snippets of interaction between Daniel and Helena and by the end I was anxious to move on to their story. I loved that both of these characters are flawed, one physically and the other emotionally, and neither thinks the other could possible want them. But their chemistry is undeniable, and I really appreciate that Jeffries lets them be honest with their desire for one another, instead of writing them as unrealistically coy or overly noble. The love scenes are erotic and tender, a perfect balance. Now I have to go find the third in the series!
