This was one of those novels where I was really wondering if it could possibly have an HEA. I loved this story until about 65% in. The MMC was a little to harsh at points around then, but he makes up for it big time. I enjoyed the premise and the story, but I also wanted there to be a little more pay off at the end.

My first book by Meredith Duran was a bad experience. So I did not expect much from this one. But I was wrong. Because whatever lacked in the previous book, this one was full of them.

The writing was amazing, the description, the emotion filled words were beautiful. Some angst lingered between the sentences. A semblance of forbidden attraction between a lord and a servant. An invisible thread of longing and revenge bound both Olivia and Alastair together.

The romance was heartwarming. This recluse duke, wallowing in self pity and vengeance has stopped stepping foot out of his own room. Then comes in a fiery haired nobody, pushing him, prodding him, infuriating him. But now, he’s awake and piqued, ready to destroy the men who destroyed him.

The attraction between Olivia and Alastair was palpable. How hard was it for him to restrain from touching, and how hard she wished she didn’t crave it. Two people from opposite ends of society, how could they ever be together?

I loved this book. I loved the angst. I loved the chemistry. I loved the plot. In a word, this book was amazing.
