It’s been quite some time since I’ve read the previous books in this series.
Things I liked:
Things I liked:
- Danny has a mysterious past
- Jeremy isn’t a lord
- The banter amongst the Malory family members
Things I didn’t like:
- A bit too much convenience for me on the killer recognizing someone in the city streets who used to be 5 years old and is now an adult
- Awful convenient that the cousin is also the thief
- Danny should have visited Lucy more often. She seemed to forget her friends very quickly until she needed them again

A little far fetched, predictable tale of a noble child who grows up in the slums of London, passing as a boy and stealing for a living. She then gets a job as a maid, falls in love with her boss and eventually finds out that she is nobility. I enjoyed it.

Not my favorite.
I feel like Lindsey is a good historical romance writer for people who don’t care or know much about history. Not for me though.

A nice romance.
It was the first novel about the Malory family I read, so I took it quite as a stand-alone. I liked Danny, a lot. And I loved Jeremy.
After gaining perspective, I loved Jeremy even more, simply because he is James' son, and James is... James.
I want to reread at some point.

Yeah, Jeremy deserved better, IMO. If you're the son of a pirate, you deserve a story that doesn't have you coming off as an uptight manwhore. And who knew that those things could exist in one person?
