Search - All Afternoon with a Scandalous Marquess (Lords of Vice, Bk 5)

This should have been a five-star book, as Hawkins' writings always are. I liked the characters and the story. All the Lords of Vice books have unusual heroines and this one was no exception. The disappointment came at the end of the book where the reader felt as though details were missing! You are left wondering what was omitted that you needed to know. Suddenly, the denouement is happening in a rush to the finish leaving a vague sense of something missing. Well worth the read, just not up to Hawkins' usual standard
