Search - The Devil's Web (Web, Bk 3)

Not her best book, but still good. I believe it is part of a series. There's so much tension between the hero and heroine that it almost makes you tired. It does work out okay in the end, but I was hoping for more. If you like Balogh, it's a good read, but try the Slightly series first.

great book

It took me awhile to warm up to these two main characters. It's only through their thoughts that we know they love each other. They usually treat each other with contempt.

In my head I was calling these two characters complete nitwits. I was on a plane with nothing else to do and thats why I finished it. Don't waste your time. Seriously.

From the back Cover…

When James Purhnell walks into the London drawing room and sees Lady Madeline Raine, time stops. Once she had been his for the taking. Now she is an aloof, beautiful stranger, determined to keep the devilishly handsome nobleman from seducing her again. But after four years apart, desire reignites-swift, hot, irresistible-culminating in a night of reckless lovemaking. Suddenly Madeline is faced with an unbearable choice: marry with no hope of love or risk certain ruin. Wheat she doesn’t know is how far James will to go right the wrongs of the past-and how much he’s willing to risk for the woman who already owns him…body, heart, and soul.

This book is just painful. If you want dysfunctional relationships in a regency, this is your book. Last as part of the web series, while all are good and discuss difficult situations. This one was about abuse and lack and the inability to communicate. Tough read.
