Forced to marry an American heiress to save his family, Graeme Parr, Earl of Montclair, vowed their marriage would be in name only. Abigail Price thought handsome, aristocratic Graeme was her knight in shining armor, rescuing her from her overbearing father. But when she was spurned by her husband on their wedding night, Abigail fled home to New York. Now, years later, Abigail has returned. But this sophisticated, alluring woman is not the drab girl Graeme remembers. Appalled by her bold American ways but drawn to her beauty, Graeme follows her on a merry chase through London's elegant ballrooms to its dockside taverns-why is his wife back? What could she want of him now? Torn between desire and suspicion, Graeme fears that Abby, like her unprincipled father, has a devious plan to ruin him. But is Abigail's true desire Graeme's destruction . . . or winning his love at last?… (altro)

Firstly, the mystery was solvable practically as soon as it was apparent that there was one. I don't read HR for the mystery quality, so it's not inherently awful, but it definitely didn't get any points for this one. Especially when the characters were so incredibly slow to catch on! What killed quite a bit of my enjoyment in the book however was the characters suddenly getting very dumb about their relationship towards the end. I'm somewhat impatient when the character's idiocy is the only thing in the way of their happiness, and these two really doubled down on that. The self-sabotage became sort of ridiculous. And though previously the heroine had been pretty cool-headed, by the end she was a blithering nitwit. Being cold towards your husband (much less allowing him to think you believe him capable of trying to murder you!) after meeting the woman he had loved, *even though you always knew of her existence*, is punishing him for something entirely out of his hands. And if you lock your bedroom door to your husband then you don't get to be butt-hurt when he doesn't come to your bed!!! If you love him but don't write him, then you can't take him not writing you as *proof* that he doesn't love you. These things do not require extreme intellect or insight! Other than those things it was a pretty decent book and I'll read the next one. ( )

The mystery irritated me, the characters were good, and the dialogue was ok. I will read this author again. (Because overall sweet, likeable characters)

This has been a snapshot review by Sam. ( )
