“Kleypas is a romance gem, a queen among a vast royal court of historical romance authors.” —Entertainment Weekly
A classic Lisa Kleypas love story about a man whos decided to forgo all romantic entanglements... until he meets a beautiful woman with a secret...
They call him the Monk of Bow Street
Sir Ross Cannon, magistrate and head of the Bow Street Runners, has spent the past few years apprehending the most dangerous criminals in London. He’s driven and disciplined, a man to be feared. His personal needs have been set aside, his days and nights consumed by the determined pursuit of justice.
Until Lady Sophia Sydney, a beautiful young woman with a tarnished past, comes to ask for employment. Ross knows a woman like Sophia doesn’t belong in the rough-and-tumble world of Bow Street, but he gives in to temptation and hires her as his assistant. Day by day the attraction between them grows, until neither of them can ignore the power of their mutual desire.
But Sophia has a secret . . . and when Ross discovers the tragic link between their pasts, any chance of being with him will vanish. All they have are a few nights of pleasure, before Sophia will be forced to leave the man she’s fallen hopelessly in love with.
What she doesn’t count on is how much Ross is willing to risk for the sake of a woman who’s awakened his heart.

Lidt forudsigelig, men det er måske det der er dejligt. Hyggelig bog

3,5 for plot og en halv ekstra for dejlige Rosalyn son oplæser.Irriterende at Mofibo ikke har den første i serien og det trækker ned også. Handlingsmæssigt er den ikke den bedste af forfatterens i min mening, lidt kedelig og tamme karakterer, men siden LK er en favorit af min, så stadig værd at bruge tiden på. Slutter lidt brat- synes man mangler lidt afslutning på Matthew Cannon og Iona og al hans utroskab og dovenskab mm men måske det lommer i en anden bog?Overall ok bog men ikke en jeg vil genlæse som jeg ofte gør med Lisa Kleypas’ andre serier som Wallflowers, Hathaways, Ravenels osv.
