( ) I was really digging this right up until the last couple of chapters. The tension was phenomenal and both protagonists were super likable (although Adam verged on too-perfectly-perfect). I generally steer clear of historical romances with sex-workers because I find it very, very, difficult to believe in the HEA, and this particular book ended with a little too much of the bluebirds-and-rainbows-and-puppies for me. Overall though, a fun-and-sexy read as long as you don't mind the utterly unlikely ending. (Are there going to be books for every Redmond, Eversea, and assorted cousins and friends before we get to Lyon and Olivia's story? Jonathan's is coming out in a couple of months, I assume Ian will be getting his own, and if the trend continues, at least 2 unrelated Pennyroyal denizens will get their own books too. This is getting a little ridiculous.) I like both leads and feel like they really got to know and appreciate the other for who they are. Which I appreciate. JAL portrayed the sweetness and longing of their relationship well. I especially enjoy stories like this where a new person comes to town and isn't accepted right away, but gradually makes things better for everyone. (Think Chocolat). It makes the ending so satisfying. I've been on a run of Histrom on courtesans, I guess. This one was ok. I enjoyed the social stuff and the tenuous friendships more than the romance. Adam was the most annoying type of hero to me, the kind that can really gut a person. Hot then cold, grand gestures followed by an arms length. No thanks. Evie, though, gets all the stars. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"From Covent Garden to courtesan to countess, beautiful, fearless, shamelessly ambitious Evie Duggan has riveted London in every role she plays. But the ton never could forgive her scandalous-if shockingly short-marriage, and when her star plummets amid gleefully vicious gossip, the countess escapes to the only legacy left to her: a manor house in Pennyroyal Green. He has the face of a fallen angel and a smolder the devil would envy, but Vicar Adam Sylvaine walks a precarious line: resisting temptation . . . and the wild Eversea blood in his veins. Adam's strength is tested when scandal, aka the countess, moves to Sussex. But when a woman who fiercely guards her heart and a man entrusted with the souls of an entire town surrender to a forbidden desire, will the sweetest sin lead them to heaven . . . or make outcasts of them forever?"--P.
