Nicole Jordan - To Seduce a Bride

Lily Loring flees to London after the matchmaking of Mrs Freemantle ànd one hell of a kiss on an attic by Heath, the third friend of Marcus, the sisters guardian and now husband to her eldest sister.
But after a while Heath tracks her and is determined to secure her as his wife. Even though Lily rebukes his every attempt.

I won't spend many words on this book.

Many times I almost wanted to close it and put it back on the shelves...
Where Roslyn was a bit overbearing at moments, Lily was it during the whole book.
Ok, their parent marriage wasn't the HEA at all, but she did see her eldest sister and (after a while)her middle sister find true love. Heath is sweet, attentive, seductive... I mean... One can protest too much too...
When he claims he wants to marry her, she shoves him away
when he tells her he loves her, she pushes him away

only the idea of losing him makes her realize her mistake. But by then, in my eyes, noone would have blamed him if he shut the door in her face...

No, to me this trilogy started promising, but it ending was poor... Especially when you know this author has so much talent...
