My Fav!!!Reread!!Sigh, so good. Loved the hero and the heroine in this. Such fun, interesting and beautiful characters. Loved their romance, their chemistry and dialogue was fantastic.Had me glued to the pages till the end. On to the next Julie Garwood book. Miss her historical romances.
4.5 starsAfter reading several books recently about troubled marriages, finally, a very sweet, happy and funny story - Julie Garwood always delivers:) The Lion's Lady is the first in the Crown's Spies series, but I read the third one first, The Gift, which I also loved. Ms. Garwood does seem to have a formula - spunky heroine, very protective warrior hero - but,hey, that's okay, it's still very entertaining. The prologue was maybe the best one I've read - also liked the different setting.
4.5 Stars
4.5 the lyon finds his lioness starsThis is the first book in Garwood's Crown Spies series that focuses on the men (and in a few cases, women) that worked for British Intelligence in the late early 1800's. Alexander Michael Phillips, the Marquess of Lyonswood ("Lyon" to those who know him), is retiring from working for the government after many years of service to the crown. He is also never getting married again after losing his wife and child in childbirth... not so much because he mourns
Totally loved this story. Loved the prologue. Laughed a lot. My only complaint was Christina's patience with her aunt. But I loved her and Lyon. Wished they had gone to visit her family though. Minor OW drama. Former paramour tried to warn her off. Christina gave her ALOT more tan she was expecting! It was hilarious!
