A dog in need of rescue brings together a young debutante and a mysterious stranger in this regency charmer from the beloved Anne Gracie. For fans of Mary Balogh and Madeline Hunter.On the eve of the London Season, Jane Chance is about to make her entrance into high society. And after a childhood riddled with poverty and hardship, Jane intends to make a good, safe, sensible marriage. All goes according to plan until a dark, dangerous vagabond helps her rescue a dog.Zachary Black is all kinds of unsuitableβ€”a former spy, now in disguise, he’s wanted for murder. His instructions: to lie low until his name is cleared. But Zach has never followed the rules, and he wants Jane Chance for his own.If that means blazing his way into London society, in whatever guise suits him, that’s what he’ll do. Jane knows she shouldn’t fall in love with this unreliable, if devastatingly attractive, rogue. But Zach is determinedβ€”and heβ€˜s a man accustomed to getting what he wants.

Rina’s Thoughts

Jane is practical, a realist not the least bit dreamy, a standard for women in the 18th century. She grew up poor and scared most of her life struggling for food and shelter and running from men who sort to use her beauty for profit. Zach is angry at the world. denies where he came from, that is until it became an advantage to win Jane.

This book was a nice read but i felt like not much was explored. they both had backgrounds that i as a reader would have loved to delve into, create a stronger bond with the characters. it didn’t feel like we even scratched the surface with these two. I get there was a book before this that might have explained at least Jane’s background but even highlights would have gone a long way. Made the other books more attractive to me, a must read but it didn’t.
