My Rating: ♥♥♥♥
Kate Westbrook has dreams far bigger than romance. Love won’t get her into London’s most consequential parties, nor prevent her sisters from being snubbed and looked down upon—all because their besotted father unadvisedly married an actress. But a noble husband for Kate would deliver a future most suited to the granddaughter of an earl. Armed with ingenuity, breathtaking beauty, and the help of an idle aunt with connections, Kate is poised to make her dreams come true. Unfortunately, a familiar face—albeit a maddeningly handsome one—appears bent on upsetting her scheme.
Implored by Kate’s worried father to fend off the rogues eager to exploit his daughter’s charms, Nick Blackshear has set aside the torch he’s carried for Kate in order to do right by his friend. Anyway, she made quite clear that his feelings were not returned—though policing her won’t abate Nick’s desire. Reckless passion leads to love’s awakening, but time is running out. Kate must see for herself that the charms of high society are nothing compared to the infinite sweet pleasures demanded by the heart.
My Thoughts
This was quite hard to finish, as I despise the heroine Kate. She is shallow, arrogant and wanted to be in the high society. I didn't see her as a heroine.. more like the other woman that you hate from a story. Now Nick... he's not my usual kind of hero. He's sweet and been in love with Kate for a long time.. I felt really bad for Nick and I don't know what he saw in Kate.. she is not loveable person. ugh. She doesn't deserve him.
But other than my issue with the heroine- This is a good story and the plot was done nicely. The ending was sweet and the heroine was kinda redeemed in the end.
I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
