The lifeblood of London</i></b>
When Olivia Bevelstoke is told that her new neighbor may have killed his fiancee, she doesn't believe it for a second, but, still, how can she help spying on him, just to be sure? So she stakes out a spot near her bedroom window, cleverly concealed by curtains, watches, and waits . . . and discovers a most intriguing man, who is definitely up to something.
Sir Harry Valentine works for the boring branch of the War Office, translating documents vital to national security. He's not a spy, but he's had all the training, and when a gorgeous blonde begins to watch him from her window, he is instantly suspicious. But just when he decides that she's nothing more than an annoyingly nosy debutante, he discovers that she might be engaged to a foreign prince, who might be plotting against England. And when Harry is roped into spying on Olivia, he discovers that he might be falling for her himself...5574977book3062009What Happens in London (Bevelstoke, #2)total:489|5:130|4:207|3:126|2:20|1:6|4891902748150314falsefalseWed Nov 04 00:00:00 -0800 2009Wed Oct 21 20:29:57 -0700 2009Wed Nov 04 14:30:41 -0800 2009

Splendid, her first book, and it's...spotty at best.
But this one? Finally, Julia Quinn has created a hero that I want for my veryvery own. I mean, I love her heroes--all of them....more...]]>

I think this will definitely be one of my favorites of Quinn's (right after Romancing Mister Bridgerton).
I loved the characters, Harry and Olivia were wonderful. There were so many witty and charming moments and that is how I would describe their story...full of wit and charm...more...]]>

I found this book enchanting and a delightful quick read. It is a stand alone , but to be honest, I went back and re-read the first book "The secret Diaries of Miss Miranda Cheever" which I decided I liked better on ...more...]]>

The two leads are very engaging and likable. What I really e...more...]]>

So I finally read Julia Quinn's new book ... and I am happy to say that I think she's headed back in the right direction (though hasn't arrived at the destination yet). I *loved* almost all of her Bridge...more...]]>
