Sooooo good! I loved St. Vincent in the last book and in this one he actually gets more swoon-worthy.

St. Vincent, who was more than a little intimidating, with his golden beauty and wintery ice-blue eyes , and a mouth made for kisses and lies. He looked like a fallen angel, replete with all the dangerous male beauty that Lucifer could devise.



Along with his gorgeous looks is a wicked sense of humor about his own depravity. When he tells Evie that he doesn't want her living in the apartments over the gambling club:

"You have no idea of what you'll be exposed to...the obscenities and lewd comments, the lecherous gazes, the groping and pinching....and that's just at my house. Imagine what it would be like here."


I'd like to come to your house, please!

He's a bad-boy and totally owns it.



Of course the sweetest and most timid wallflower, Evie, ends up with him. They marry to save her from her abusive family and him from his debts, but her innocent sweetness melts his hardened heart. I loved watching him soften up as he got to know her. She is like an abused kitten that needs shelter and protection and it brings out the best in him.

Oh my gosh, I can't say enough about how much I loved this book. I feel this strange need to gush or something.



Just read it!!

Yodamom Great review, I loved this book/series.


Jilly Thanks! yes, this book was the best in the series!


Fresiako Yesss! St. Vincent was the best. Have you read Lisa Klepas's dreaming of you? with Derek Craven. If you loved St Vincent then you'll love Derek.


Jilly Not yet, but I will now! Thanks!


Marie Therese "I'd like to come to your house, please!" 😂 Sebastian St. Vincent, dayum! May I just say that his son, Gabriel, is just as swoonelicious and droolovable as he is? 😍🔥🔥


Jilly Honey, I agree! His son is also delicious. I love that I have a father and son duo on my book boyfriend list. It makes me feel naughty. ;P

Em Truly one of the best couples, especially the hero/ rake, in all the historical romance books I have read. And best book in the series, hands down.
