GENRE: Romance

FIRST SENTENCE: Some say Lady Fia Merrick was born bad, others that she'd only been raised to it.

SUMMARY: [From barnesandnoble.com] His desire for her turned abduction into seduction...

She is the toast of London society. But Fia Merrick gives her heart to no one, for love is a weakness she cannot afford. Once she would have given her soul to Thomas McClairen, until he shattered her innocent dreams. 

Now he is back, a convict returned to England in disguise to abduct Fia to Scotland, to McClairen's Isle. There, as Fia seeks her revenge in seduction, a passion is ignited that defies the past and cannot be denied...


THOUGHTS: Womp! Womp. This book was a rather lackluster end to a romance series that I considered slightly better than average. Fia was built up to be the best of the Merrick characters, and she sort of turned into a whiny ninny. Sad face.

Also, I am so far removed from reading this book (was this really sitting in my draft pile since mid-April?) that I can't remember many of the salient details about this book. That is never, ever a good thing.

I will say this, the chemistry between the two characters was quite well written. I could, in many instances, even consider it "spicy."

RATING: 5/10 [Meh.]
