Publisher's summary

Dark times fall upon Lady Sarah and her friends as they try to unravel mysteries of who wants them dead.

Barely snagging Lady Lillian out of danger, Lady Sarah finds herself embroiled in some clandestine mischief. It causes her to doubt Lord Archer and her own feelings for him. But this fashion-loving countess is not able to give up on her dreams and love for him. She enlists the aid of her two best friends to piece together what might really be happening. For she couldn’t bear it if he was a traitor to the crown.

Lord Archer’s hero in the spy organization he and his family had long been a part of is in Edinburgh to reveal a traitor to the crown. Only his boss wants him to spy on the woman he loves and the best friend of her and his own sister. Could he have really fallen in love with a traitor? He keeps his own counsel from his boss. Upon deciding that there is no way his beloved could be a traitor, he recruits them all to uncover the dark underworld doings that could lead to Queen Victoria’s death.

While their lives and love are under attack, the two of them work to bring down one of England’s most powerful lords before he can kill the queen.

The plot thickens with book 2

I received an audio copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

After finishing Darkest Valentine, I couldn't wait to read (listen) to this book! I HAD to know what happened next.

While we still got to see almost the whole cast from book 1 (and we were introduced to some new characters), this story centered around Sara and Lord Archie. I love their story, that started when they were children.

There was so much to love about this story - action and adventure, love and betrayal, new friendships formed and old ones breaking. Espionage, says, and even the beginnings of treason. Man, this story had it all and I had trouble tearing myself away from it!

Towards the end of the book. I looked at the counter and it said I have 1 hour and 7 minutes left.
My first two thoughts:
1. Man, how is everything going to finish in an hour.
2. This is going to be one action pack, fight for the finish hour.
The author delivered right after that! Bam!!!! A key event (sorry, I don't want to spoil it) and it was non stop from there. I was glued to the edge of my seat, waiting with baited breath to know what happens next.

I can't wait for book 3!!!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
