Description
“Her characters come alive with warmth and purpose.” --Jodi Thomas, New York Times bestselling author
Broken Promise, Broken Heart
Aidan Somerville, Duke of Forster, is a rake, a spy, and a soldier, richer than sin and twice as handsome. Now he is also guardian to his deceased best friend’s young son. The choice makes perfect sense—except that the child’s mother is the lovely Sophia Gardiner, to whom Aidan was engaged before he went off to war. When the news reached him that she had married another, his ship had not yet even left the dock.
Sophia does not expect Aidan to understand or forgive her. But she cannot allow him to stay her enemy. She’s prepared for coldness, even vengeance—but not for the return of the heedless lust she and Aidan tumbled into ten years ago. She knows the risks of succumbing to this dangerous desire. Still, with Aidan so near, it’s impossible not to dream about a second chance…

Featured Reviews
This was a exciting debut author who did an outstanding job of writing this book. I was so taken with the characters, background and romance which held my interest. I really love the cover with a flirty lady.
When I first stated reading I thought, oh another one of those. But it isn't that kind of story. It hooked me in at the very first chapter.
When Aidan Somerville, the Duke of Forster, receives a letter from his deceased friend stating that he wants Aidan to be the guardian of his son. It's been about ten years since he had any contact with his friend, being a spy and soldier in the war. Now he has to get on board with this request, and also meet with his former fiancee Sophia Gardiner the mother.
Aidan doesn't want this aggravation and thinks that somehow revenge is the sweetest factor of all. He will treat her as cold as he can, but this woman has changed. She still sets his lust aflame with just one look. Sophia wants to be friends with Aidan, but he has this look when he watches her. There is a lot of backstory with this read, and you will just have to find out what happens.
I know that these two people have a long way to go, but as they say love conquers all!
I appreciate Net Galley and Kensington Books for this ARC title in which I gave an honest review.
