The darkness in their hearts means they can never love - doesn't it?
Euphemia Fortescue fled an arranged marriage, and suffered the whims and trials of false friends and twisted lords. But as Harcourt Sinclair's housemaid, she found peace and purpose.
Harcourt Sinclair has been planning his revenge for 20 years against those peers of society who stole everything from him. But his single-mindedness will cost him, unless he can learn to trust his least expected savior....
Redemption, adventure, secrets, desire, and love in Regency London.

The narrator has a pleasant enough voice but she tries too hard to act out the book, rather than simply narrating it, and as a result comes across much too dramatic.
The story was clever and original, but the heroine as Wonder Woman is just absurd. She can fight off armed assailants, win every hand at the card table, take a bullet to the shoulder and catch a ride home, defeat a man in a duel with swords, and talk a gun wielding assassin out of shooting them all. And fly away with the hero, cure the plague, and defeat Napoleon all by herself. (Just kidding that last sentence!) The author is so enamored of her heroine that she’s simply unbelievable and so full of herself as to be very unlikable.
Kind of cringeworthy waste of a credit
