And so another one of the Cynster males wholeheartedly falls into the love-shackles of matrimony. 
 Plot 
 At the beginning of the book Vane can already be seen running like a headless cock. His behaviour gives the feeling as if fate is a real, live physical entity that is going to pounce on him, anytime. He fears that he's the next in line to be accosted by the love-bug. And as any romance reader knows, rakish heroes must pretend to be running away from love. 
 But a storm forces him to take refuge at his Godmother's residence and there he meets the alluring Patience Debbington. Right in the first look and the first touch, it becomes evident, fate has decreed its will on him. Love is in the air. 
 My Opinion 
 The book strongly reminded me of Kristen Ashley's characters. So much so that if Rock chick was ever to be based in early 19th century England's nobility, one would find something like the Cynster series. Same arrogant, bad-ass heroes and similarly stubborn women. And lots of baby and family loving works. The women are classy, gorgeous mamas (not actual mamas-geez!) and the males keep drooling over them. 
 Unfortunately this also means that there are times when you'll feel it is not historically accurate enough. An issue that I did not have with the first book. Despite that, the dialogues save it from being a contemporary. 
 The book had its own share of light mystery and lots of hot embraces. So it is definitely 100% entertainment material.
