Heiress Augusta Meredith can’t help herself—she stirs up gossip wherever she goes. A stranger to Bath society, she pretends to be a charming young widow, until sardonic, darkly handsome Joss Everett arrives from London and uncovers her charade.

My Review
As much as I want to say that loved this story, I am unable
to recommend this one. I honestly don’t know if it’s me, but I have the most
difficult time with the author. I find that her voice in the story just never
seems to catch me in any way. I have tried Theresa Romain out in the past, and
never had much success with her stories, which is sad for me, since the blurbs
sounds amazing, but I think I just am unable to connect with her stories. It is
pretty sad, especially when you find a book you want to enjoy but just can’t.
It tends to be very frustrating. I went into this story knowing that I could
only give it 50 pages or so. That is my new rule now, because I know if I am
going to enjoy a book or be able to get into it once I reach that 50 page mark.
I felt like the story had potential, but I just couldn’t see the connection
between the characters or able to enjoy the set up very well. I actually gave
myself a few days with this story, and just couldn’t get into it and I didn’t
want to have to force myself to try to enjoy reading this one, there was no
enjoyment for me for this one. I am not sure if I will try this author out
again, which is regrettable since I know how many others just love her books.
Maybe one day I can try her out again and find a story to love and enjoy.
Heartbreaking!
