Sister of the Duke of Wakefield, Lady Hero Batten has accepted the proposal of the Marquess of Mandeville. Hero is happy with her choice of future husband, until she meets his younger brother, Griffin Remmington, a notorious rake who is said to have seduced his brother's first wife. When Hero travels to the slum of St. Giles to visit an orphanage, Griffin insists on going along to keep her safe. Soon the two strike up a friendship which soon turns into an attraction they can't deny.
I didn't think I would enjoy a book where the main couple were betraying Griffin's brother, Thomas (Hero's fiance), but Elizabeth Hoyt pulls off the storyline with no problems. Maybe it was because Thomas was only marrying Hero to get a wife equal to his station, even though he was in love with another woman at the time. I liked both Griffin and Hero, who showed that opposites attract and are sometimes perfect for each other. I loved seeing how Griffin tried to make himself a better man for Hero. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
