Chased by a powerful duke with revenge on his mind and a private army in tow, Jack has no choice but to confiscate Madeleine's carriage. He promises to take his leave once they arrive at the wedding in Gretna Green but doesn't count on his growing desire for the blue-eyed beauty. When the unexpected appearance of Maddie's father and the mistakes of a drunken priest alter everyone's plans, Maddie is furious—until she discovers that Blackthorne's kisses arouse a passion in her she'd long ago stopped praying for.
Maddie is tired of all the proposals, of her father controling her life... So she decides to elope to Gretna Green with a man who will give her the freedom she needs...
But she hadn't foreseen her cousin Ashley intervening... nor could she foresee two handsome man hijacking their coach and throwing all of them in an adventure they will never forget...
Okay, you all know I adore Shana Galen's books. Due to circumstances it took me too long to get the book... My twins will be arriving very soon and I thought I wouldn't have much time to read after they are born... So I went to purchase the ebook!
After reading most of the day I can't say I regret the buy one minute...
All through the book I was smiling... Seeing the adventures happening right before my eyes. Smiling at the antics of all the characters.
Jack (Lord Blackthorne) was wonderfull... No polished gentleman!
He's mostly rude in a very charming way...We have Nick, and I pray
we get to read his and Ashley's story very soon...I had to smile when the two brothers interacted... You know... I can hurt my brother, but anyone else
Maddie was a wonderful heroine... She stood up for herself and her friends.
This is a book everyone will surely like. Especially those that tried other books by this author and liked them... You get the typical regency scenario... Heroine elopes and is 'rescued' by hero But Shana Galen is able to twist it in such a way you never read the plot like that...
It's a light read you won't regret
