Invitation to Ruin by Bronwen Evans
4.0
4 STARS
Melissa wants one thing from marriage and that is love while Anthony wants to avoid matrimony altogether. One night Anthony enters Melissa's bedroom thinking it is her look alike widowed cousin and changes both their lives.
To save Melissa's reputation the two must marry - Melissa loves Anthony but only wants him if he loves her. Anthony will marry Melissa who will get his mother, brother and ton off his back but he can never get her pregnant with his genes. And to make things worse there are people out there to hurt the couple. Distracted with the push and pull of lust and doing right the two may not know the danger out there.
I enjoyed this historical romance as the hero and heroine have good chemistry and are both tortured souls. Anthony has a very dark side but as Melissa breaks into his heart he becomes softer and redeemable. I would compare Anthony to Anne Stuart's dark tortured heroes with many flaws. This first novel has great promise for the series.
