In fact, that is probably my biggest disappointment.something that kept these two apart for years was resolved too neatly. He and Sophia are so perfect for one another that the story had to create an external factor keeping them apart because otherwise the story would be over too quick. Gabriel is a man who gave up the woman he loved (for reasons revealed in the book). OPINION: I really liked the characters and the last third of the book was really good with lots of drama and character driven issues.
As the two join forces, they discover that what they felt for one another is not in the past. She doesn't expect to find Gabriel again. She eavesdrops at doors and dons men's clothing in order to make her way around town. Miss Sophia Hampton has always gone her own way. As he works to uncover what has happened in his absence, he has a reunion with the woman he loved and had to leave. THE STORY: Major Gabriel Prideaux has returned to England to find his older brother in a lunatic asylum with much left unexplained.
The resolution of a years old separation was too simple for me. How unfortunate that her heart still beats for him even after all these years, especially considering the way he left her and never looked back.įINAL DECISION: I liked the connection between the hero and heroine but the book had too slow a start for me as it covered a lot of backstory. However, the last person she ever expected to find upon her arrival was Gabriel Prideaux. …STILL IN LOVE WITH THE ONE LADY HE CAN NEVER HAVE Miss Sophia Hampton has always been reckless, but no more so than when she dons a pageboy outfit to sneak into her cousin’s bachelor lodgings to beg for his help with their dictatorial grandfather. At every turn, there is another catastrophe just waiting for Gabe, but being home after many years away, he finds that his thoughts keep returning to the one girl he’s always loved, especially when he stumbles upon her in a most surprising place and in an even more surprising attire. THE HEIR TO AN EARLDOM RETURNS… Major Gabriel Prideaux returns to England to find his claim to the earldom as tenuous as ever, his brother in a lunatic asylum, and his oldest friend guarding the streets at night as the Covent Guard.
