Christi Caldwell is back, baby! Holy Moses! I haven’t been the biggest fan of Christi’s latest books. They have kind of fallen flat for me. BUT this one makes up for them 100%.
Verity is a flawless heroine. She is magnetic, strong, and vibrant. I could not help but instantly fall in love with her. I was in her corner from page one. Not only is she in animated character with an intricate backstory and elaborate personality, she is a developing character. She breathes. She is alive in the same way Christi’s early Heart of the Duke heroines are alive.
Malcom is a unique character. It took me a bit longer to get on board with him than it did Verity, but at the same time, I was incredibly interested in his story. Child kidnapped from privilege, raised in squalor, and then forced (unwillingly) back into the glittering peerage. It’s an intriguing story line, and Christi does it justice.
I am a huge fan of the “Caldworld”. I absolutely love the intricacy of relation. (I blame it on my fantasy loving heart!) I am always looking for who characters are in relation to each other, but I absolutely did NOT see these familial ties coming. Maybe I’m off my game, or maybe it’s because it’s been a good while since I have done a reread. In any case, I was so surprised that I shouted, out loud. My husband made *that face*. You know the one. The face people who aren’t reading your book make when you visibly react to a book? That’s the one.
I have not made a secret of the fact that I haven’t loved Christi’s latest books, the ones taking a walk outside of the peerage and into the street. Not because I don’t like those sorts of stories, I do, I just haven’t really loved these particular books. That being said, this one absolutely restores my faith. I loved everything about this story. Highly recommend.
