The Rumpelstiltskin inspired love story of a spinster wallflower betrayed by friends and family and a criminal mastermind with a big secret.
After a chance meeting on the balcony of a duke’s Mayfair home, felicity and devil become tangled in each other’s secrets and make an arrangement that turns into love almost immediately.
He’s not good enough for her. She’s done with doing what’s expected. He’s experienced. She is not. He thrives in the darkness. Her favorite color is pink and she is his sunlight.
There are lessons, gifts, trellis climbs, a lot of meaningful lock picking, and a rooftop scene both emotional and smoking.
This book is way over the top. I love it.
