Product Description
Book Description
After an absence of many years, a strapping young man returns to England to assume the responsibilities of an earldom after the murder of his twin brother. Despite his grief, he succeeds his brother honorably, and vows to bring the killer to justice. The only joy to be had upon his return is the opportunity to see his former love, now a Baron's widow. But the reunion is a cold one, as the lady's feelings toward him are laced with scorn and mistrust, the result of the legacy left by his brother. Despondent and broken-hearted, he nonetheless refuses to deny his overwhelming love for her.

4.0 out of 5 stars
almost five stars,

This review is from: Clandestine Courtship (Paperback)
I really enjoyed reading this book but it is far from being Allison Lane's best (that would be "The second Lady Emily"). The story is about a man who after ten years absence returns home in order to find out who murdered the beast his twin brother was. For this he seeks the help of his former childhood friend Mary with whom he falls in love. The hero thinks a little too much with his groins (otherwise the book is chaste enough) and is quite stuborn, but is likeable enough. The heroine is clever and self-reliant (like all heroines in Lane's books), but only to an extent still believable for the time setting. The crime story in this book gives a nice plot. However, I was a little disappointed when the murderer turned out to be somebody barely mentioned in the book.
