Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars
Back Cover: Proper Lady
Christabel, the Marchioness of Haversham, is desperate to regain some letters
that could destroy her -- so desperate that she pretends to be the mistress of
notorious gaming-club owner Gavin Byrne to accompany him to a scandalous house
party where she can reclaim them. But when she agreed to let Byrne coach her on
how a true mistress behaves, she never suspected how very...persuasive his
wicked lessons would be. Gavin is secretly determined to find the letters
himself and use them for revenge against the noble sire who abandoned him to
grow up in London's worst slums. He's also delighted at how very successful his
"mistress lessons" are: it won't be long before the luscious young
widow is in his bed. But when Christabel catches Gavin in his own seductive
net, he faces a difficult choice: to wreak the vengeance he's planned all his
life, or to protect the woman he may -- to his own astonishment -- need more
than revenge.
This is the third book in the Royal Brotherhood trilogy. Now
we’ve seen Gavin in the first two books as the man that has been truly wronged
by his Princely father. Now he is being asked to do something for him. He must
get a woman who has shot at him into a house party. Christabel doesn’t know
what she is really asking of Gavin. But as the two work together they both
learn that no one should go by what they first see. Gavin is not the man that
everyone believes him to be. The character is very deep and well written and
keeps you guessing as to what he will do next. Chritabel is even harder to put
into a neat little box. I enjoyed reading the final book in this trilogy.
Sabrina Jeffries writing is highly entertaining and I am a little sad that the
trilogy is over. But I most defiantly will be looking for other books by her.
