When Arthur Kellington was fifteen, a Romany fortune teller predicted that his true love would be killed. Since then, he’s resolved to never fall in love. He has no trouble keeping his resolution until he meets Vanessa Gans, an agent with the Home Office who is on the trail of two hardened criminals. As he finds himself falling for her, he must keep his distance emotionally as the only way to protect them both.

Despite her illegitimate birth, Vanessa Gans has worked her way up to being one of the Crown’s finest agents. She’s reluctant to accept Arthur’s help initially because she doesn’t want to place him in danger. Then she realizes her heart is truly at risk because there can be no honorable future between them.

這本略遜一點點。原因是女主角是個英國國王的臥底探員,所以這個故事一開始就是女主角在辦案的過程。愛情的部分稍微被這個辦案過程給削弱了一點。男主角一眼就喜歡她,所以硬是要跟著她去辦案。他們的感情就在這途中發展。

女主角出身很低,除了是bastard之外,又曾經當過扒手,後來才被她的上司出手搭救,脫離了街頭的生活背景。因此兩位主角中間卡住的問題就是階級的差異。但是Kellington家的兄弟姊妹真的都太感人了,不但不在意這種階級問題,總是能出手搭救好人,毫不遲疑地運用公爵家族的特權幫助弱勢。看起來好爽喔!!

老實說我看完這三本,超級超級期待大哥Lynwood的故事,他在其他三本書中的表現一直讓我想到maiden lane系列中第五本Maximus,也是一個從小就擔負公爵重任的角色,總是壓抑自己,外表十足的公爵貴族,但是內心一直有個情緒想要釋放出來。
