3.5 stars.
I mostly enjoyed this book and found the hero and heroine to be quite interesting and not at all stereotypical. I simply could not, however, accept the idea of a gently bred young woman falling into bed with this virtual stranger, a penniless rake at that, right after her child disappeared. I like plenty of spice in my HR and granted that he was trying to help her, but in this case the story would be better if the sexytimes had been put off for a while.
Thank you to Ballantine Books and netgalley.com for an advance copy of this book.
