Cosa c’entri questo libro con i due successivi, a parte il fatto che alcuni personaggi vi fanno capolino, non riesco proprio a capirlo! La storia è lenta, quasi senza capo né coda, a tratti noiosissima, con riferimenti a un libro precedente che risulta praticamente introvabile in versione italiana. Se poi lo metto a confronto con i due libri successivi della serie non sembra neanche scritto dalla Chase, manca completamente di verve, un tira e molla continuo che non mi ha appassionato e due protagonisti che non sono riusciti a suscitarmi particolari emozioni. Effettive due stelle e mezzo. Leila Beaumont es una bella y fascinante mujer. También muy fuerte e inteligente. El conde d'Esmond es un hombre oscuro y atormentado por su pasado, que busca redención. Los dos forman una especial pareja embarcada en un acto de justicia. Alguien ha asesinado al esposo de Leila y ambos buscarán al autor del crimen. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

Fiction.
Romance.
HTML: Leila Beaumont is a gorgeous and talented portrait painter trapped in a loveless marriage with her profligate husband, Francis. Though long ago, Francis very much played the hero, rescuing and wedding the orphaned 17-year-old Leila - Francis' more recent hedonistic lifestyle of drinking, drugging and womanizing has not only earned him quite a few enemies in London, but lost him the love of his wife. When Francis turns up dead in the Beaumont townhouse, right after a loud and vitriolic argument with his wife, Leila is seen as the primary suspect, innocent though she is. Because of Francis' many enemies and victims, government officials instigate a quiet investigation, many of whom fear fallout from Francis' numerous blackmail and extortion schemes. The man they call on - the sexy blue-eyed Comte d'Esmond - is a man of many talents who has spent the past ten years as one of the government's most trusted covert operatives; a man who also has a dark and treacherous past. Neither Leila, nor Esmond is especially happy to be working together - their relationship is one of intense attraction accompanied by intense resistance. Leila had long ago given up on the idea of love and saw her husband as a means of propriety in London, but now she finds the dangerous Esmond's seductive charm nearly irresistible. But work together they must: Esmond, with a carefully hidden identity that would shock Leila to the core and Leila with her own secrets to keep... It's danger that unites them and it's danger that chains their hearts: Esmond's virility and bold touch enflame Leila's blood...and draw her into the most irresistible intrigue of all...truly passionate love. .Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
