His character was so intriguing in the previous books but he got stuck with the amnesia story. Unfortunate. ( ) Quinto libro della serie, anche questo molto bello. Per le conseguenze di un incidente a cavallo durante la battaglia di Waterloo, Lord Alleyne Bedwyn si risveglia in un bordello privo di memoria e di qualsiasi ricordo del suo passato,a cominciare proprio dal suo nome. A salvarlo è stata Rachel York, una nobile giovane donna da poco derubata di tutti i suoi averi che cercherà di ottenere il suo aiuto per poter entrare anticipatamente in possesso dell’eredità materna, ora in mano allo zio. Una storia un po’ sopra le righe, avvincente, emozionante e anche molto simpatica per i tanti personaggi diversi e un po’ particolari che danno vita a questa vicenda. Amnesia plots have never been my favorite, so I was torn between excitement to have another Bedwyn novel to read and worry that I would find it tedious. I’m happy to report it wasn’t tedious, although I wished Rachel and Alleyne would have had a little more space in the book to enjoy their happiness. I also missed seeing the whole family take more of a role, although it wouldn’t have worked for this plot. The Bedwyns coming in with well-intentioned, boisterous meddling has always been my favorite element of these books. Boy, that reunion, though. I don’t know if any of the other books made me tear up, but this one sure did. I might have to reread Wulf’s book now, even though I thought Christine was a little too hard on him. Gosh, I’m going to miss the Bedwyns! The supporting cast of characters was lots of fun, especially Sergeant Strickland, with his I-have-no-right-to-say-this monologues. The four high-spirited prostitutes were maybe a little overdone, but I couldn’t help but love them. I was happy too that Rachel learned the truth about her family history and had a chance for real familial love and happiness in addition to the romance. La invitación para acudir a Bath no le habrÃa podido llegar en un momento más oportuno a lady Freyja Bedwyn. Es la mejor excusa para alejarse de su hogar ahora que sus vecinos, Kit Butler y su esposa, van a ser padres. Orgullosa, altiva y testaruda como todos en el clan Bedwyn, Freyja no quiere dejar entrever que sigue dolida por la boda de Kit, su mejor amigo de la infancia y el hombre con quien estaba destinada a compartir la vida. No cree que pueda encontrar a otro como él. Después de varios años trabajando de forma clandestina para el gobierno, Joshua Moore, marqués de Hallmere, acaba de regresar del continente. Cuando se dirige a Bath para reunirse con su tÃa, tiene un encuentro fortuito con Freyja en el que recibe un puñetazo. La segunda vez que se ven, ella lo acusa ante toda la sociedad. En la tercera ocasión, Joshua ya ha decidido que esta mujer con carácter es la única que puede ayudarle a huir de los planes matrimoniales que han concebido para él. Solo ella tendrá la audacia para fingir que ambos están prometidos en un noviazgo ligeramente escandaloso. Alleyne, el más joven de los varones del clan Bedwyn, fue dado por muerto en la batalla de Waterloo. Sin embargo, en realidad solo fue herido y derribado de su caballo, por lo que perdió el conocimiento y despertó, inexplicablemente, en la habitación de un burdel de Bruselas. Ignora su pasado y su identidad; lo único que sabe es que el ángel que le ha estado cuidando, Rachel York, es la mujer que desearÃa para él. Rachel también guarda más de un secreto. Pertenece a la aristocracia, pero las circunstancias la han llevado a refugiarse en esta casa de dudosa reputación. Por su culpa, las prostitutas con las que convive perdieron todos sus ahorros, y ella está dispuesta a ayudarlas con una herencia en joyas que solo cobrará cuando se case y su tÃo apruebe la elección de marido. Alleyne quiere devolverle el favor y hacerse pasar por su esposo. Pero el agradecimiento no es la única razón que le mueve a ayudar a Rachel... Septima entrega de la serie romántica histórica de los Bedwyn. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
