Now, Megan has come of age and is about to be launched into society when an accidental meeting with the notorious Duke and a case of unknown identity, set their story in motion.<\/p>\n<p>Nicholas is the picture of a stereotypical duke: a rake, jaded by wealth and all it can provide, yet deep down, is searching for a better half. He meets his match in the stunning but restless Megan when she mistakenly takes his prize stallion, forcing a showdown between the two. Their brief dalliance leaves the duke wanting to know more about Megan, including her name and any potential suitors she is about to entertain in her first season.<\/p>\n<p>Clouding Megan&#8217;s future is the disappearance of her parents, a serious illness and a lackluster marriage proposal.\u00a0 All of which, conspire to transform Nicholas from randy rake, to Megan\u2019s ardent suitor. But their union is complicated by a decade-old feud between Bradshaw and Megan\u2019s brother Julian, and the fact that she has been temporarily placed under the Duke\u2019s guardianship.<\/p>\n<p>Society embraces the plucky Megan who blossoms into a self-confident woman still pining for the man in the portrait while Nicholas\u2019s responsibility for Megan wars with his growing need for her. When Nicholas\u2019s past is about to crash in on the couple, deceit and betrayal force him to face the loss of the one woman he can\u2019t live without.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the book, a sense of time and place are revealed in detailed descriptions and settings, while well-defined characters help establish this story through action and snappy dialogue. Several twists and turns carry the plot and fuel the action that features treachery, kidnapping and adventure on the high seas. But it\u2019s also where some difficulty arises. At certain points, the momentum is jarred by improbable reactions or resolutions which occur where some character arcs or development present challenges. However, it didn\u2019t stop me from wanting to finish the story or cheer on Nicholas and Megan. Readers are rewarded with an undeniable attraction between the two while their love scenes remain fairly tame and brief.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Green does a very good job of setting up the scenes and tension (the opener is a winner!), presenting the actors and launching a plot filled with numerous conflicts and decent suspense, which makes that sense of \u2018rushed\u2019 resolutions somewhat unsettling. It left me to wonder if editing or limited word count may have been the reason. I felt invested and wanted to spend more time with these men and women on their journeys and fully experience their transformations.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the antagonist and co-conspirators, whose identities are cleverly concealed throughout the book, I came to know and understand pretty well.<\/p>\n<p>And, a cast of likable personalities is presented and left me wanting to see more of them in the future. These included Julian Westland, Nicholas\u2019s friend Jeremy, Capt. Jack and Megan\u2019s new found friend, Evie. I am cheered to see Green has several books planned in the <em>\u2018Innocence\u2019 <\/em>series with a few of the aforementioned characters.<\/p>\n<p>On the whole, Green provides a well-rounded tale and satisfying read that I would recommend, and I&#8217;m looking forward to her upcoming books, particularly those that tell the stories of Julian and Capt. Jack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">7 (Good)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat Level:<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #339966;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">2.5 (Warm)<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Buy Link: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thewildrosepress.com\/tiffany-green-m-600.html?zenid=ac7995adf86597f576bf5387dd18e5dc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wild Rose Press $6.00<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2786\" title=\"Helena\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/03\/Helena.png?resize=540%2C148\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"148\" \/><\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-2753\" data-postid=\"2753\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-2753 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Innocence Lost Author: Tiffany Green Publisher: Wild Rose Press Pub.
