This is such a fantastically fun start to a new series! Eva Leigh's writing is extremely engaging and her characters are vibrant and interesting. This series sets up the love stories of three wild rakes, who are being tasked to get their lives better in order. Eva Leigh knows how to create the perfect interest and anticipation for the stories to come as well as crafting a wonderful beginning. This fast paced, brother's best friend romance is charming and delightful and I absolutely adored every moment of it!
When Kieran, the hero, is given the ultimatum to reform, he sees the perfect opportunity to improve his reputation in Celeste, his friend's sister. Celeste is a darling of society with a spotless reputation, but she longs for adventure and to escape an engagement from a stuffy earl. So when Kieran needs her help in improving his reputation, she sees the perfect opportunity to engage his services in showing her the wild and intriguing underbelly of London.
This romance is an absolute delight! The chemistry and attraction between Kieran and Celeste is beautifully built and creates the perfect tension between them. I loved watching Kieran and Celeste work together and open up to each other. I love that Kieran sees Celeste's strength and learns to understand how she has felt trapped in her gilded cage of a life. I also love that Kieran will do anything to make Celeste happy in the end, even if that means not being with him. Kieran learns to be unselfish when it comes to Celeste, because he wants for her what she wants for herself, and it is a really beautiful and self-less love he learns to embrace. I love that Celeste is comfortable with Kieran and can really and truly open herself up. I love that she is unafraid to explore and take her own life into her own hands and make decisions for herself. This book is delightfully steamy and sensual, it only has a few very intimate scenes, but that are absolutely stunning and such a beautiful way to show the trust and love that these two have built with each other.
This book is every thing I could have wished and wanted in the start of this series! I wholeheartedly recommend this book, if you are a fan of Eva Leigh's you are going to love this and if you are new to her, this is a perfect beginning! I can't wait to see our other Rakes get their HEAs!
Thank you to Avon Books and NetGalley for an eARC, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
