In Bronwen Evans’s Loveswept debut, a pair of damaged souls ignite each other’s deepest passions—even as they tempt fate by deceiving the world.
Desperate to escape her abusive past, Sarah Cooper disguises herself as a governess in the employ of Christian Trent, Earl of Markham, the man who, long ago, she fantasized about marrying. Despite the battle scars that mar his face, Sarah finds being near Christian rekindles her infatuation. A governess, however, has no business in the arms of an earl, and as she accompanies Christian on his voyage home, Sarah must resist her intense desires—or risk revealing her dangerous secrets.
One of the renowned Libertine Scholars, Christian Trent once enjoyed the company of any woman he chose. But that was before the horrors of Waterloo, his wrongful conviction of a hideous crime, and his forcible removal from England. Far from home and the resources he once had, Christian believes the life he knew—and any chance of happiness—is over . . . until his ward’s governess sparks his heart back to life, and makes him remember the man he used to be. Now Christian is determined to return to England, regain his honor, and win the heart of the woman he has come to love.
My Review
Sarah is on the run from a horrible crime. She is a long way from home and takes the job as governess to make her way back. Christian is also away from home having been accused of horrible crimes. He knows it's time to go back home and sort things out. He hires Sarah to watch over his ward. He is attracted to her but doubts she can see past his scars. Sarah knows who Christian is but keeps her identity from him. She has always wanted him but is afraid of being close to a man. They both begin to care for each other and heal their unseen wounds. Both are in danger of more than falling in love and have to try and stay alive.
Christian is a very protective man who does not want to see any woman hurt. He would never hurt one. He is ashamed of his scars and how people act around them. He is a wonderful man but not many woman look past his scars. Sarah in some ways is very timid. She is scared and it's very understandable why when you here her story. She is also a very caring person who wants to heal Christian.
I just have to say I need the next book in this series now. If this one is any indication of what is to come they all will be wonderful. I love both the main characters and how far they will go for each other. Both are preferred for each other and really heal each other. Even with bad past they get past it to love each other. There is also a mystery to solve and you really never know what will happen. Like I said I need the next book to see more of the mystery. The author does a great job keeping you on your toes. You get love, action, suspense and so much more in this fantastic book. Be sure to pick up a copy of you like a hot historical romance.
