Between the Devil and Ian Eversea

Pennyroyal Green Series #9

By: Julie Ann Long

Releasing March 25th, 2014

Blurb

She might look like an angel...

The moment orphaned American heiress Titania “Tansy” Danforth arrives on English shores she cuts a swath through Sussex, enslaving hearts and stealing beaux. She knows she's destined for a spectacular titled marriage—but the only man who fascinates her couldn't be more infamous...or less interested.

...but it takes a devil to know one...

A hardened veteran of war, inveterate rogue Ian Eversea keeps women enthralled, his heart guarded and his options open: why should he succumb to the shackles of marriage when devastating good looks and Eversea charm make seduction so easy?

...and Heaven has never been hotter.

When Ian is forced to call her on her game, he never dreams the unmasked Tansy—vulnerable, brave, achingly sensual—will tempt him beyond endurance. And fight as he will, this notorious bachelor who stood down enemies on a battlefield might finally surrender his heart...and be brought to his knees by love.

My Review

Tansy an American heiress has just arrived in England. She is out to find a husband and work through loosing her family. She is a beautiful charming woman who captures many hearts and is set to make a great marriage. She could have many but she only wants one. Ian Eversea can have many women but he never wants to settle down. He is a war veteran with big plans to travel the world. He sees more to Tansy than she sows in public and he is bound to reveal her true character. Only problem is as he finds out more abut her the more he is determined to have her in bed. But will a few nights passion be enough to rethink settling down.

Tansy is an unusual woman as she talks to flowers, has a list of what she wants her future husband to be like and a few other vices. She likes being the center of attention but tries to act like it is all new to her. She carries her pain close and uses a front to hide behind. Ian is a womanizer and not ashamed of it. He is the black sheep of the family and they try to hide him at times. He had a hard time in the war and it gives him nightmares. He watches and is very observant as well as sexy.

At first I wasn't sure how much I would like Tansy. She seemed self centered but as the story grew like Ian I saw more to her. I really liked Ian from the start. There is something about a rogue that just pulls you in. The author does a great job in writing this book as I cud see things clearly in my head. The time period, clothing and actions all come across very well. Beside Ian and Tansy I enjoyed the other characters as well. They make you want to know more about them as well. I loved seeing how much Ian changes and his reaction a few times. He and Tansy both learn to open up with each other and they both learn to let go f some of their pain. If you like historical romance I would recommend this one as it is hot at times and wonderful all the time.
