Temptress in Training sounded like it had all the makings for a wonderful historical romance—wit and humor, love and adventure, intrigue and mystery. What more could a reader possible want? After reading it, I have to be honest: this reader was still left wanting more, specifically more romance, more of a connection with the characters. The rest of the story was done well enough, though there were parts that were a bit bumpy. Heino has a good hand at being able to weave wit and humor into her story, and I had very little complaints there. The web that Heino weaved around the characters and storyline was so complex that I do not know that I have it completely figured out, even now. Just when you think you know who everyone is and what part they play in the overall scheme of things, Heino throws another curve in the road, throwing you off yet again. However, while trying to make everything so complicated and steeped in mystery, I felt like a few of the characters and their stories were pushed out of the way entirely, turning a character that had the potential to be a lead into nothing but a wisp of a memory long before the end of the book. Perhaps this was somehow intentional—I cannot say. .... ~*~*~ The review is property of NightOwlRomance.com sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

But dream of a better life lead Sophie to take a position as a maid for one of the Madame's clients.

After the Earl of Lindley's search for the double agent who killed his family leads him to Miss Darshaw, he begins to suspect she's somehow connected to the plot.

Sophie Darshaw doesn't have much of a life. She's working as a seamstress in a brothel. She hopes for improvement by taking a job as a maid at a lecher's house, but that's not working out either. Then she runs into the Earl of Lindley. He's been assigned to track down a spy and Sophie keeps showing up on his radar.
Sophie's past unravels like an onion, layer after layer, betrayal after betrayal. Lindley starts out as a reluctant hero but rises to the occasion.
