The meeting of Lord Julian Emory, the tenth Viscount Chatham, and Rose Farthingale is nothing short of explosive—literally: Julian rescues her from a combustible kiln! Setting off sparks from the very first, these two are drawn to each other, but Julian's strange entanglement with the luscious and evil Countess Valentina Deschanel leads to Rose and Julian's sister, Nicola, hatching plans to force Julian to fall in love with Rose and leave the countess behind. But what the girls don't know is that Julian is an agent for the Crown and is getting close to Valentina only to catch a traitorous spy. Torn between the passion and pull Rose finds in Julian's eyes and the sight of the countess on his arm, this path to true love is the hardest Farthingale test yet.
VERDICT This prequel, set before the previously published stories of Rose's sisters Lily, Dillie, Daisy, and Laurel, brings readers back to historic Mayfair London, where a return trip to the townhouse on Chipping Way is always interesting. The Farthingale sisters have a talent for finding men and falling in love with a certain fanfare, and this latest installment (after A Midsummer's Kiss) is no exception, with explosions, abductions, and a heavy dose of heat and passion. Farthingale fans rejoice: If You Loved Me, which centers on cousin Adelaide, is still to come!
