A sheltered beauty

Helen has had little contact with the glittering, cynical world of London society. Yet Rhys's determined seduction awakens an intense mutual passion.

      Narrator Mary Jane Wells deftly brings to life the rocky romance between Lady Helen Ravenel and commoner Rhys Winterborne. With their impending marriage threatened, the gentle Lady Helen has to learn to trust the bold Rhys. Wells expertly conveys the heroine's shyness and the hero's sexiness, especially his delicious Welsh accent. She also captures Lady Helen's vivacious twin sisters. Listeners were introduced to Lady Helen and Rhys in Kleypas's prior book, COLD-HEARTED RAKE. This book can stand alone, but having listened to the earlier work adds to the pleasure.

      Walking into Rhys Winterborne's office, unchaperoned and unbidden, is the hardest thing shy Lady Helen Ravenel has ever done, but she will do just about anything to repair their shattered relationship. Yet convincing Rhys is only the beginning. There's her family, as well. A wealthy businessman with rough Welsh roots and a gently bred noblewoman who finally takes charge of her life find love and acceptance despite their considerable differences--and a devastating secret. This adventure sweeps its characters from elegant drawing rooms to garbage-strewn slums and provides a callous, delightfully smarmy villain to hate. VERDICT Picking up where Cold-Hearted Rake leaves off, this engaging tale brings class bias, illegitimacy, and assorted social issues of the Victorian era into sharp focus and seamlessly continues the series while hinting at escapades to come. Beautifully done. Kleypas lives in Texas.
