This was a Our hero and heroine have a history that did not turn out well - in fact, he 'compromised' her and then refused to marry her, leaving her forced to marry the man her father found for her. This was a better than average telling of this type of story - the author did not drag everything out to the last pages but had the characters solving past problems one step at a time. I've always loved Kathryn Smith's historical writing. Love this series too. Apr 22, Carrie Olguin rated it liked it. Entertaining but not memorable.
Seven years prior, they were caught in each other's arms by the heroine's father. The hero refused to marry her to save her reputation. A week lalter, the heroine became engaged to another man. Seven years later, they both have a different interpretation of the past. The heroine is a widow dealing with her lusty brother in law. The hero is trying to marry off his sister to a rich and titled man capable of taking care of her. The sister is in love Entertaining but not memorable.
The sister is in love with an man she knows her brother will never approve of. She runs to the heroine for sanctuary so that she won't have to return for another London season and spend time with the men her brother has approved. The attraction is still there. But so is the seven years of hurt, mistrust and animosity. The biggest problem I had with the story was the hero's reaction when he finds out that the heroine knew his sister was in love with an unsuitable man and didn't tell him.
He considers it a betrayal and overreacts, blaming the heroine for his sister's actions running way to marry the man she loves. In reality, if he had known his sister's feelings, he would have done something drastic to keep her away from the man she loved - because he's a controling male. Women have honor, too. Marriage doesn't mean she stops being her own person, or that she has to give over all her connection, commitments and vows to her husband. The hero learns his lesson. They all forgive each other and promise to do better in the future. If this was a real couple, I'd wonder if they could have a happily ever after.

Their primary trust issue was not solved might take a lifetime. Aunque con tantas cosas buenas en el mercado dudo que sea pronto. Pero luego de un par de los mejores libros de Laurens, pienso que esperaba demasiado de ellos. Jun 25, Lin Historical lover It took me 2 years to finally read this book!
Friends Trilogy by Kathryn Smith
I read book 1 in the series as a borrowed paperback. I re-read it immediately upon finishing it I loved it that much! I read the sample of book 2 on kindle and totally enjoyed it After that I just flat out refused to pay full price for book 3. I waited and waited for it to go on sale.
I tracked its price and waited and waited Finally I won a challenge and got some prize money so I decided it was high time I read book 3. I was not disappointed. These stories are different from the usual. The women are strong and overcome great scandal and hardship. They are passionate and not timid in the bedroom.
The men are complex and interesting. My only complaint is the books are too expensive and hard to find in my library. If it wasn't for the paperback I was loaned I may have never touched this author Jan 12, Nicole rated it liked it Shelves: This book gazes with an unflinching eye at the many ways in which upper-class women had no control over their lives in the early s. Unlike many, many Regency romances, it also acknowledges the necessity of servants to maintain an upper-class lifestyle, in that the existence of those servants are mentioned and the characters are often conscious that they do not want "the help" to overhear what they are saying.
