White Is Quickly Becoming the Top Name in Edwardian Romance
Lady Ella Myerston can always find a reason to smile--even if it's just in hope that tomorrow will be better than today. All her life everyone has tried to protect her from the realities of the world, but Ella knows very well the danger that has haunted her brother and their friend, and she won't wait for it to strike again. She intends to take action . . . and if that happens to involve an adventurous trip to the Cotswolds, then so much the better.
Lord Cayton has already broken two hearts, including that of his first wife, who died before he could convince himself to love her. Now he's determined to live a better life. But that proves complicated when old friends arrive on the scene and try to threaten him into a life of crime. He does his best to remove the intriguing Lady Ella from danger, but the stubborn girl won't budge. How else can he redeem himself, though, but by saving her--and his daughter--from those dangerous people who seem ready to destroy them all?

Ella, is quiet simply, just delightful! This is one character you have no trouble loving; she is happy, playful, hopeful and wise. I like that she was a strong female lead but not in a showy way. Her strength comes through in her character; her ability to look beyond, to trust and have faith even when others doubt or circumstances are more than what they seem. She stands firm and holds to her convictions.
Seeing Cayton's transformation and spiritual growth was another gem in this tale! I really enjoyed this pair. Their banter and interactions were well written and very engaging. I chuckled several times and definitely had a grin upon my face.
The Fire Eyes mystery and suspense finally comes to ahead and is wrapped up well. White brings previous characters from Book 1 & 2 back, and finishes off both this novel and series in a satisfying and well thought out way. I can highly recommend this one!
