![]() ![]() I read this in one sitting and my attention was glued to my IPAD. ![]() Tessa Dare has a way with words and her stories flow fast. They truly had odds to overcome but you as the reader are pulling for them hard. Talk about serious laugh out loud moments especially with Gabe’s interaction with the animals and the guys interaction with each other (true bro moments). I loved the romance between Penny and Gabe. When he meets Penny he presents as very hard and serious, but he has a soft side that he has kept hidden for fear of vulnerability. But he also takes pleasure in bringing the hated aristocracy to their knees financially. Gabriel has dragged himself from the gutters of London and he has become what we would consider today a real estate mogul. Her love of animals leads her into a rather sexy introduction to our hero Gabriel Duke. Lady Penelope loves animals.specifically wounded and abandoned animals. I cannot say a bad thing about any of her books and this one ranks top too. Tessa Dare has proven once again why she is one of the BEST historical romance writers of all nsistency. ![]()
