This is a fast paced story . There was a lot happening around the H/h but their love story was a little bit underdeveloped through that . Still ... I enjoyed it enough for 4 stars .

Historical romance with a heavy dose of intrigue and drama.
The female main character is a lovely young lady, all that is correct and proper. Honestly she’s a little boring but she’s doing her best as the men around her keep making decisions for her without paying much attention to her.
I wish the author had written more from the male main character’s perspective since the lady sees him through rather forgiving eyes of a woman in love. The male main character has a bit of a past and some enemies trying to destroy his new relationship. He gives the lady a token to indicate his commitment but his loyalty keeps coming into question. The plot twists a few times before the whole thing gets sorted out by the bravery of a secondary character.
There’s a happy ending.
Violence. No sex. Mild language.

Sandra Heath is hit or miss for me.
This frustrating book tried my patience, so much so that I barely finished it. No warmth, no real depth, and the central characters were unutterably boring. Cardinal sin of a Regency romance!
The most interesting characters were the lady's maid and the wayward, if amiable, brother.
That said, the description of everybody's clothes was grand.
