I do hate to say it but Devon isn’t one of my favourite of character he is manipulative and ruthless and to me, he just doesn’t come across as a strong character whereas his brother West is one of the best things in the book. I will admit that it is a good read but yet this one seems to be missing that special Kleypas magic that you find in all her previous books.
True it has all the ingredients of a classic Kleypas novel Handsome scoundrel. It has been a long wait for the new Lisa Kleypas book and as much as I do love her writing to me this one seems to lack something, I can’t quite explain it but to me, it’s like something wasn’t there what should have been. As Kathleen finds herself yielding to his skilful erotic seduction, only one question remains:Ĭan she keep from surrendering her heart to the most dangerous man she’s ever known? But the fiery attraction between them is impossible to deny – and from the first moment Devon holds her in his arms, he vows to do whatever it takes to possess her. Kathleen knows better than to trust a ruthless scoundrel like Devon. His estate is saddled with debt, and the late earl’s three innocent sisters are still occupying the house.along with Kathleen Trenear, a beautiful young widow whose sharp wit and determination are a match for Devon’s own. But his powerful new rank in society comes with unwanted responsibility.and more than a few surprises.
Lisa Kleypas ~ Cold-Hearted Rake (The Ravenel’s #1)ĭevon Ravenel, London’s most wickedly charming rake, has inherited an earldom.
