Book Reviews of Wicked As Sin: A Novel (Boscastle)
Book Review: Gabriel - The Outcast We Love!
Summary: 5 Stars
Jillian Hunter has done it again with the perfect blend of romance and humor set in a historic setting that intrigues the reader and doesn't let go until the last page is turned. Well actually that isn't even accurate, she has given us a sneak preview of her next book that had me wishing she would write faster and publisher sooner! I love this family and all of their adventures!
Character development continues to be excellent in Jillian Hunter's books. She continues to weave a cast of characters that her fans come to love and she gives us a brief glimpse into past characters' lives so we can continue to feel like a friend of the Boscastle family. Each of her characters is unique and has a personality that thrives on fun and adventure.
Overall, I think Jillian Hunter becomes a stronger writer with each of her publications. Her characters and storylines are fun and trap the reader from the beginning. I often find myself chuckling in her books as her wit is evident in her writing. You definitely won't be disappointed reading any of her books, especially Wicked as Sin.
Summary of Wicked As Sin: A Novel (Boscastle)
Award-winning author Jillian Hunter has written a deliciously sexy new novel rife with sly wit, perilous temptation, and breathless passion.Handsome cavalry officer Sir Gabriel Boscastle returns from Waterloo a hero, only to resume his pursuit of forbidden pleasures in London. There is no bet this cynical gentleman will not take–and no woman he cannot seduce. But when he travels to the country manor he wins during a card game, he discovers there is one gamble he has never risked and that he may have met his match. His opponent and neighbor is none other than Alethea Claridge, the only person who stood by him during his wildest years and the only woman ever to captivate his heart.
The beautiful and solitary Lady Alethea is seemingly still mourning for her fianc?, who died in battle. But beneath her shield of feigned sorrow, she hides an unspeakable secret–one that could destroy her reputation forever. So when this dark horseman thunders back into her life one night, she is understandably wary of him. She had defended Gabriel once when he was a wicked boy. But now, as a beguiling man, he makes his sensual desires well known even as he swears he will reform. Will the irresistible scoundrel redeem himself and restore her trust in love or ruin her completely? She will soon have her answer as Gabriel challenges everything she believes about love, about herself, and about what it takes to be a hero.
