Summary

Number one New York Times best-selling author Stephanie Laurens concludes the tales of the Cavanaugh siblings with the riveting story of the youngest brother and his search for a family of his own.

The scion of a noble house brought low by a storm and the lady who nurses him back to health strive to unravel a web of deception that threatens her family and forces them to fight for what they hold most dear - family, each other, and love.

Lord Godfrey Cavanaugh has no thoughts of marrying as he drives into North Yorkshire on a plum commission for the National Gallery to authenticate a Renaissance painting the gallery wishes to purchase. Then a snowstorm sweeps in, and Godfrey barely manages to haul himself, his groom, and his horses to their destination.

Elinor Hinckley, eldest daughter of Hinckley Hall, stalwart defender of the family, right arm to her invalid father, and established spinster, knows full well how much her family has riding on the sale of the painting and throws herself into nursing the initially delirious gentleman who holds her family’s future in his hands.

But Godfrey proves to be a far from easy patient. Through Ellie’s and her siblings’ efforts to keep him entertained and abed, Godfrey grows to know the family, appreciating and ultimately being drawn into family life of a sort he’s never known.

Eventually, to everyone’s relief, he recovers sufficiently to assess the painting - only to discover that nothing is as it seems.

Someone has plans - someone other than the Hinckleys - but who is pulling the strings is a mystery that Godfrey and Ellie find near-impossible to solve. Every suspect proves to have perfectly understandable, albeit hidden reasons for their behavior.

Until the villain, panicked by their inquiries, strikes - directly at them - and forces them both to acknowledge what has grown to be the most important thing in their lives. Together they battle to save not just themselves, not just her family, but their futures. Hers, his, and theirs.

Lovely story beautifully read

Not the genre I usually chose and my first Stephanie Laurens book. I thought it started slowly and took a bit to get going but I stuck with it and found the whole experience charming. Kudos to the narrator who was a delight to listen to and perfect for the story. Art world plus handsome titled arts expert , single girl and a bad ‘un makes for a romantic story with a twist. Recommended.

Same old bumpf

Quite a good story but slow. I am so weary of virgins who always climax during their first intercourse and the obligatory oral sex. The hero is nice but a bit of a wimp.

Quietly gripping

A reasonably strong story of deception and theft in a background of new love. A good read

After 4 in series…

You got to feel for this family, as someone always ends up getting shot but never mortally! Bit more predictable and from much earlier on this time in the book! Your gut tells you who the bad guy is from almost the off but nether the less an enjoyable and easy listen!

Awful

Basically, buttoned-up Victorian soft porn. No storyline, one dimensional characters. Narrator very stilted without any life in his voice.
