Good book, interesting twists and turns! Fast paced and leaves you wanting more. Duncan makes for a good mmc and leaves one wanting a relationship like theirs!

Huge thanks to NetGalley for the eARC.

Readers of All's Fair in Love and Treachery should be prepared for ANGST with a capital A.N.G.S.T, courtesy of this newest installment in the series. Not to give too much away but when you suspect your " half-Scottish secret paramour" of murdering your beloved "viscount fiancé" a girl's allowed to wallow in misery. Luckily for us, Lady Petra Forsyth, not being able to confront Duncan Shawcross, delves into "royal assignment instead", thereby taking the reader on a wild ride of a mystery.

I've been really enjoying the recent influx of historical mystery/lady detective books being published and a highly recommend this series by Celeste Connally if you are a fan of the genre.

This is a great sequel to the first book! Lady Petra is shocked to find her lover was the murderer of her viscount years ago and she now goes on the hunt for him. She feels betrayed and her trust has been shattered. The plot of this book is not always clear cut, but I still loved the book and rated it five stars.

Kindle Copy for Review from NetGalley, Minotaur and St. Martin Press.

I received a free, advance copy of this book and this is my unbiased and voluntary review.

Lady Petra finds out the death of her viscount three years ago was a case of murder and the murderer is her Scottish lover who been consoling her. Shea cannot let things go as she will hunt down her missing lover and get the truth as she feels betrayed. Love and treachery goes hand –to-hand as trust is a fleeting emotion. And things are not always clear cut.
